More quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
He who makes no mistakes makes no progress.
Theodore Roosevelt
Let individuals contribute as they desire but let us prohibit in effective fashion all corporations from making contributions for any political purpose, directly or indirectly.
Theodore Roosevelt
Every person who invests in well-selected real estate in a growing section of a prosperous community adopts the surest and safest method of becoming independent, for real estate is the basis of wealth.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is, of course, the merest truism to say a party is of use only so far as it serves the nation.
Theodore Roosevelt
I do not in the least object to a sport because it is rough.
Theodore Roosevelt
We do not admire a man of timid peace.
Theodore Roosevelt
We need the iron qualities that go with true manhood. We need the positive virtues of resolution, of courage, of indomitable will, of power to do without shrinking the rough work that must always be done.
Theodore Roosevelt
No educated man can afford to be ignorant of the Bible.
Theodore Roosevelt
I don't think any President ever enjoyed himself more than I did. Moreover, I don't think any ex-President ever enjoyed himself more.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is not the critic who counts
Theodore Roosevelt
Obedience of the law is demanded not asked as a favor.
Theodore Roosevelt
The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits.
Theodore Roosevelt
There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains.
Theodore Roosevelt
We despise and abhor the bully, the brawler, the oppressor, whether in private or public life, but we despise no less the coward and the voluptuary. No man is worth calling a man who will not fight rather than submit to infamy or see those that are dear to him suffer wrong.
Theodore Roosevelt
In foreign affairs we must make up our minds that whether we wish it or not, we are a great people and must play a great part in the world. It is not open to us to choose whether we will play that great part or not.
Theodore Roosevelt
To divide along the lines of section or caste or creed is un-American.
Theodore Roosevelt
No other President ever enjoyed the Presidency as I did.
Theodore Roosevelt
The only tyrannies from which men, women and children are suffering in real life are the tyrannies of minorities.
Theodore Roosevelt
The great corporations which we have grown to speak of rather loosely as trusts are the creatures of the State, and the State not only has the right to control them, but it is duty bound to control them wherever the need of such control is shown.
