Theodore Roosevelt
The hardest lessons to learn are those that are the most obvious.
Theodore Roosevelt

Theodore Roosevelt
The man who really counts in the world is the doer, not the mere critic -- the man who actually does the work, even if roughly and imperfectly, not the man who only talks or writes about how it ought to be done.
Theodore Roosevelt
I feel as fit as a bull moose.
Theodore Roosevelt
A true forest is not merely a storehouse full of wood, but, as it were, a factory of wood.
Theodore Roosevelt
To divide along the lines of section or caste or creed is un-American.
Theodore Roosevelt

Theodore Roosevelt
