Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"I have done all I could to secure them equal school training when young, equal opportunity to earn their livelihood, and achieve their happiness when old."

"But I wish it distinctly understood that the fact of the birthplace of either officer is one which I absolutely refuse to consider."

"I have striven to break up peonage; I have upheld the hands of those who, like Judge Jones and Judge Speer, have warred against this peonage."

"Some work injustice by granting valuable rights in perpetuity without return."
