More quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
I took the Canal Zone and let Congress debate and while the debate goes on, the canal does also.
Theodore Roosevelt
Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.
Theodore Roosevelt
Whatever it is, handle it so that your children's children will get the benefit of it.
Theodore Roosevelt
Toward all other nations, large and small, our attitude must be one of cordial and sincere friendship. We must show not only in our words, but in our deeds, that we are earnestly desirous of securing their good will by acting toward them in a spirit of just and generous recognition of all their rights.
Theodore Roosevelt
Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere.
Theodore Roosevelt
The one characteristic more essential than any other is foresight... It should be the growing nation with a future which takes the long look ahead.
Theodore Roosevelt
To sit home, read one's favorite paper, and scoff at the misdeeds of the men who do things is easy, but it is markedly ineffective. It is what evil men count upon the good men's doing.
Theodore Roosevelt
I believe that the next half century will determine if we will advance the cause of Christian civilization or revert to the horrors of brutal paganism.
Theodore Roosevelt
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
Theodore Roosevelt
Envy is as evil a thing as arrogance.
Theodore Roosevelt
No great intellectual thing was ever done by great effort.
Theodore Roosevelt
If, in any individual, university training produces a taste for refined idleness, a distaste for sustained effort, a barren intellectual arrogance, or a sense of superfluous aloofness from the world of real men who do the world's real work, then it has harmed that individual.
Theodore Roosevelt
Laws are essential emanations from the self-poised character of God they radiate from the sun to the circling edge of creation. Verily, the mighty Lawgiver hath subjected himself unto laws.
Theodore Roosevelt
Life is as if you were traveling a ridge crest. You have the gulf of inefficiency on one side and the gulf of wickedness on the other, and it helps not to have avoided one gulf if you fall into the other.
Theodore Roosevelt
I regard the Masonic institution as one of the means ordained by the Supreme Architect to enable mankind to work out the problem of destiny to fight against, and overcome, the weaknesses and imperfections of his nature, and at last to attain to that true life of which death is the herald and the grave the portal.
Theodore Roosevelt
Show me a man who makes no mistakes, and I will show you a man who doesn't do things.
Theodore Roosevelt
When we undertake the impossible, we often fail to do anything at all.
Theodore Roosevelt
The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything. Do not be afraid to make mistakes providing you do not make the same one twice.
Theodore Roosevelt
I am an American free born and free bred, where I acknowledge no man as my superior, except for his own worth, or as my inferior, except for his own demerit.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is not in all America a more dangerous trait than the deification of mere smartness unaccompanied by any sense of moral responsibility.
Theodore Roosevelt
