Teddy Roosevelt: “No matter what that occupation may be, as long as there is a real home and as long as those who make up that home do…”

On the recordMarch 12, 1905
No matter what that occupation may be, as long as there is a real home and as long as those who make up that home do their duty to one another, to their neighbors and to the State, it is of minor consequence whether the man's trade is plied in the country or the city, whether it calls for the work of the hands or for the work of the head.
