Nowadays the field naturalist-who is usually at all points superior to the mere closet naturalist-follows a profession as full of hazard and interest as that of the explorer or of the big-game hunter in the remote wilderness.

More quotes by 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
Some men can live up to their loftiest ideals without ever going higher than a basement.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is the people, and not the judges, who are entitled to say what their constitution means, for the constitution is theirs, it belongs to them and not to their servants in office—any other theory is incompatible with the foundation principles of our government.
Theodore Roosevelt
There can be no greater issue than that of conservation in this country.
Theodore Roosevelt
No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his well-being, to risk his body, to risk his life, in a great cause.
Theodore Roosevelt
It's not having been in the Dark House, but having left it that counts.
Theodore Roosevelt
There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains.
Theodore Roosevelt
No man is justified in doing evil on the ground of expedience.
Theodore Roosevelt
Each one must do his part if we wish to show that the nation is worthy of its good fortune.
Theodore Roosevelt
Give the brethren a chance to do something, anything, no matter how small or unimportant. A brother convinced that he is helpful is enthusiastic.
Theodore Roosevelt
Leave it as it is. You can not improve on it. You can only mar it. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it. What you can do is keep it for your children, your children's children and for all who come after you.
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
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
There is but one answer to terrorism and it is best delivered with a Winchester rifle.
Theodore Roosevelt
When I say I believe in a square deal i do not mean to give every man the best hand. If the cards do not come to any man, or if they do come, and he has not got the power to play them, that is his affair. All I mean is that there shall be no crookedness in the dealing.
Theodore Roosevelt
I wish to see the Bible study as much a matter of course in the secular colleges as in the seminary.
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
It may be that at some time in the dim future of the race the need for war will vanish: but that time is yet ages distant. As yet no nation can hold its place in the world, or can do any work really worth doing, unless it stands ready to guard its right with an armed hand.
Theodore Roosevelt
The White House is a bully pulpit.
Theodore Roosevelt
From the very beginning our people have markedly combined practical capacity for affairs with power of devotion to an ideal. The lack of either quality would have rendered the other of small value.
Theodore Roosevelt
