Teddy Roosevelt: “If we do not, then our children when they look back for cause of pride in our history will have to skip our generation.”

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 wish to say that the Progressive Party is making its appeal to all our fellow citizens without any regard to their creed or to their birthplace.

I have just been shot.

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