More Quotes by Theodore Roosevelt
Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
He who makes no mistakes makes no progress.
Knowing what's right doesn't mean much unless you do what's right.
Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.
There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.
Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.
The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
This country has nothing to fear from the crooked man who fails. We put him in jail. It is the crooked man who succeeds who is a threat to this country.
Most of us tiptoe through life in order to make it safely to death.
If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.
