Teddy Roosevelt: “The destiny of the race is chiefly in its own hands, and must be worked out patiently and persistently along these…”

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.

I don’t know anything about who the man was who shot me to-night.

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

I am not sick at all. I am all right.
