Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"In the last analysis it is the man's own character which is and must ever be the determining factor in his success or failure in life"

"I demand it of you as a right, and hold you recreant to your duty if you fail to give it."

"There is nothing more foolish, nothing less dignified than to indulge in boastfulness, in self-glorification as to the capacity of our soldiers and sailors while denying them the material which we are..."

"We have a right to expect from the college bred man, the college bred woman, a proper sense of proportion, a proper sense of perspective."
