More quotes by 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
The only trouble with the movement for the preservation of our forests is that it has not gone nearly far enough, and was not begun soon enough.
Theodore Roosevelt
Materially we must strive to secure a broader economic opportunity for all men, so that each shall have a better chance to show the stuff of which he is made.
Theodore Roosevelt
Just as you believe you may have already halfway there
Theodore Roosevelt
There is nothing brilliant or outstanding in my record, except perhaps this one thing. I do the things I believe ought to be done. And when I make up my mind to do a thing, I act.
Theodore Roosevelt
To waste, to destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them amplified and developed.
Theodore Roosevelt
Now and then we hear the wilder voices of the wilderness, from animals that in the hours of darkness do not fear the neighborhood of man: the coyotes wail like dismal ventriloquists, or the silence may be broken by the snorting and stamping of a deer.
Theodore Roosevelt
Nothing worth having was ever achieved without effort.
Theodore Roosevelt
In a civilized and cultivated country, wild animals only continue to exist at all when preserved by sportsmen.
Theodore Roosevelt
After the war, and until the day of his death, his position on almost every public question was either mischievous or ridiculous, and usually both.
Theodore Roosevelt
The country is the place for children, and if not the country, a city small enough so that one can get out into the country.
Theodore Roosevelt
Every man, who parrots the cry of ‘stand by the President’ without adding the proviso ‘so far as he serves the Republic’ takes an attitude as essentially unmanly as that of any Stuart royalist who championed the doctrine that the King could do no wrong. No self-respecting and intelligent free man could take such an attitude.
Theodore Roosevelt
The first duty of an American citizen, then, is that he shall work in politics.
Theodore Roosevelt
It's not the critic who counts.
Theodore Roosevelt
For unflagging interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well, certainly all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance by comparison.
Theodore Roosevelt
I dream of men who take the next step instead of worrying about the next thousand steps.
Theodore Roosevelt
Nine tenths of wisdom consists in being wise in time.
Theodore Roosevelt
Conservation is a great moral issue, for it involves the patriotic duty of insuring the safety and continuance of the nation.
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
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.
