Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"You have shown that you appreciated the fact that to be a good citizen a man has got to handle himself not with a view to shirking difficulties but to meeting them and overcoming them."

"The law must get at the big man who goes wrong just as it gets at the small man who goes wrong."

"Violence of the individual, above all, violence of a mob—that type of violence—is incompatible with free government, with free and orderly liberty in our republic."

"I pity no man because he has got to work."
