Theodore Roosevelt
If given the choice between Righteousness and Peace, I choose Righteousness.
Theodore Roosevelt
The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything. Do not be afraid to make mistakes providing you do not make the same one twice.
Theodore Roosevelt
The only man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.
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
There never has been devised, and there never will be devised, any law which will enable a man to succeed save by the exercise of those qualities which have always been the prerequisites of success - the qualities of hard work, of keen intelligence, of unflinching will.
Theodore Roosevelt
No educated man can afford to be ignorant of the Bible.
Theodore Roosevelt
It is a wicked thing to be neutral between right and wrong.
Theodore Roosevelt
Of all the questions which can come before this nation, short of the actual preservation of its existence in a great war, there is none which compares in importance with the great central task of leaving this land even a better land for our descendants than it is for us.
Theodore Roosevelt
