More quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
Courage is not having the strength to go on, it is going on when you don't have the strength. Industry and determination can do anything that genius and advantage can do and many things that they cannot.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is no effort without error or shortcoming.
Theodore Roosevelt
The chief factor in any man's success or failure must be his own character.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is no good reason why we should fear the future, but there is every reason why we should face it seriously, neither hiding from ourselves the gravity of the problems before us nor fearing to approach these problems with the unbending, unflinching purpose to solve them aright.
Theodore Roosevelt
The joy in life is his who has the heart to demand it.
Theodore Roosevelt
To announce that there must be no criticism of the president... is morally treasonable to the American public.
Theodore Roosevelt
Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihood - the virtues that made America.
Theodore Roosevelt
Every man holds his property subject to the general right of the community to regulate its use to whatever degree the public welfare may require it.
Theodore Roosevelt
If we put corrupt men in public office and sneeringly acquiesce in their corruptions, then we are wrong ourselves.
Theodore Roosevelt
The beauty and charm of the wilderness are his for the asking, for the edges of the wilderness lie close beside the beaten roads of the present travel.
Theodore Roosevelt
I am a part of everything that I have read.
Theodore Roosevelt
In the great battle of life, no brilliancy of intellect, no perfection of bodily development, will count when weighed in the balance against the assemblage of virtues, active and passive, of moral qualities which we group together under the name of character.
Theodore Roosevelt
There is quite enough sorrow and shame and suffering and baseness in real life, and there is no need for meeting it unnecessarily in fiction.
Theodore Roosevelt
I like to see Quentin (Roosevelt) practicing baseball. It gives me hope that one of my boys will not take after his father in this respect, and will prove able to play the national game.
Theodore Roosevelt
Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike.
Theodore Roosevelt
It may be true that he travels farthest who travels alone, but the goal thus reached is not worth reaching.
Theodore Roosevelt
No other President ever enjoyed the Presidency as I did.
Theodore Roosevelt
If, in any individual, university training produces a taste for refined idleness, a distaste for sustained effort, a barren intellectual arrogance, or a sense of superfluous aloofness from the world of real men who do the world's real work, then it has harmed that individual.
Theodore Roosevelt
Our duty to the whole, including the unborn generations, bids us to restrain an unprincipled present-day minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations. The movement for the conservation of wildlife and the larger movement for the conservation of all our natural resources are essentially democratic in spirit, purpose, and method.
Theodore Roosevelt
Performance should be made square with promise.
