Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"If any man tells you that he can advance a specific by which all the evils of the body politic will be made to disappear, distrust him, for if he is honest he knows not what he says."

"We are all loyal Americans now—North, South, East and West—all alike jealous of the nation's honor and welfare."

"Let's try to get rid of them, but let's show common sense in the effort."

"The more one studies the problems of life and of civilization the more one realizes the infinitely greater importance of the man than of his physical surroundings."
