Teddy Roosevelt: “The best citizen is the man who is a good husband, a good father; the woman who is a good wife, a good mother.”

The fate of the leader for the time being is of little consequence, but the cause itself must in the end triumph, for its triumph is essential to the well-being of the American people.

Like all other good citizens, I accept the result with entire good humor and contentment.

I have just been shot.

Don’t you pity me. I am all right.
