Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"Where wrong has been done by anyone the wrong-doer shall be punished; but we shall not halt in our great work because some man has happened to do wrong."

"The Republic has put up its flag in those islands, and the flag will stay there."

"I am glad that we, as Americans, have cause to be proud of the army and the navy of the United States—of the men who in the past have upheld the honor of the flag, and of their successors, the soldier..."

"We may be sure that the honor of the Republic is safe in their hands."
