More quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
Envy is as evil a thing as arrogance.
Theodore Roosevelt
[Among the books he chooses, a statesman] ought to read interesting books on history and government, and books of science and philosophy and really good books on these subjects are as enthralling as any fiction ever written in prose or verse.
Theodore Roosevelt
We must diligently strive to make our young men decent, God-fearing, law-abiding, honor-loving, justice-doing and also fearless and strong.
Theodore Roosevelt
All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune-make for a finer, nobler type of manhood.
Theodore Roosevelt
Don't foul, don't flinch-hit the line hard.
Theodore Roosevelt
If I have to choose between peace and righteousness, I'll choose righteousness.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is a wicked thing to be neutral between right and wrong.
Theodore Roosevelt
No man is above the law and no man is below it: nor do we ask any man's permission when we ask him to obey it.
Theodore Roosevelt
Conservation means development as much as it does protection. A man's usefulness depends upon his living up to his ideals insofar as he can.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is better to be faithful than famous.
Theodore Roosevelt
Constructive change offers the best method for avoiding destructive change.
Theodore Roosevelt
It's not having been in the Dark House, but having left it that counts.
Theodore Roosevelt
No greater wrong can ever be done than to put a good man at the mercy of a bad, while telling him not to defend himself or his fellows in no way can the success of evil be made surer or quicker.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is no reason why people should not call themselves Cubists, or Octagonists, or Parallelopipedonists, orKnights oftheIsoscelesTriangle, or Brothers of the Cosine, if they so desire as expressing anything serious and permanent, one term is as fatuous as another.
Theodore Roosevelt
Our duty to the whole, including the unborn generations, bids us to restrain an unprincipled present-day minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations. The movement for the conservation of wildlife and the larger movement for the conservation of all our natural resources are essentially democratic in spirit, purpose, and method.
Theodore Roosevelt
I want to see you shoot the way you shout.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is superstition in science quite as much as there is superstition in theology, and it is all the more dangerous because those suffering from it are profoundly convinced that they are freeing themselves from all superstition.
Theodore Roosevelt
Alone of human beings the good and wise mother stands on a plane of equal honor with the bravest soldier for she has gladly gone down to the brink of the chasm of darkness to bring back the children in whose hands rests the future of the years.
Theodore Roosevelt
The greatest historian should also be a great moralist. It is no proof of impartiality to treat wickedness and goodness on the same level.
Theodore Roosevelt
Rarely has any people enjoyed greater prosperity than we are now enjoying. For this we render heartfelt and solemn thanks to the Giver of Good and we seek to praise Him -not by words only -but by deeds, by the way in which we do our duty to ourselves and to our fellow men.
Theodore Roosevelt
