Theodore Roosevelt
The chief factor in any man's success or failure must be his own character.
Theodore Roosevelt
Those who oppose all reform will do well to remember that ruin in its worst form is inevitable if our national life brings us nothing better than swollen fortunes for the few and the triumph in both politics and business of a sordid and selfish materialism.
Theodore Roosevelt
There are good men and bad men of all nationalities, creeds and colors and if this world of ours is ever to become what we hope some day it may become, it must be by the general recognition that the man's heart and soul, the man's worth and actions, determine his standing.
Theodore Roosevelt
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting but never hit soft.
Theodore Roosevelt
Every expansion of civilization makes for peace. In other words, every expansion of a great civilized power means a victory for law, order, and righteousness. ...It is only the warlike power of a civilized people that can give peace to the world.

Theodore Roosevelt
All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune-make for a finer, nobler type of manhood.
Theodore Roosevelt
Our surest protection against assault from abroad has been not all our guards, gates and guns, or even our two oceans, but our essential goodness as a people. Our richest asset has been not our material wealth but our values.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all.
Theodore Roosevelt
McKinley has no more backbone than a chocolate eclair.
Theodore Roosevelt
Abraham Lincoln - the spirit incarnate of those who won victory in the Civil War - was the true representative of this people, not only for his own generation, but for all time, because he was a man among men.
Theodore Roosevelt
A leader is an average, everyday person who is highly motivated.
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
The joy in life is his who has the heart to demand it.
