Teddy Roosevelt: “Beyond question this prosperity could not have come if the American people had not possessed the necessary thrift…”

The man who does nothing cuts the same sordid figure in the pages of history, whether he be cynic, or fop, or voluptuary.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood.

Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.

I am not sick at all. I am all right.
