Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"This convention shall not take effect until the same shall have been approved by the Congress."

"During the last year the Lord has dealt bountifully with us, giving us peace at home and abroad and the chance for our citizens to work for their welfare unhindered by war, famine or plague."

"Be ye therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves."

"We being ready both in body and soul may cheerfully accomplish those things which thou commandest."
