Teddy Roosevelt: “I do not mean that he must love only the negative virtues; I mean he must love the positive virtues also.”

I want every labor man, every labor leader, every organized union man, to take the lead in denouncing crime or violence.

Don’t you pity me. I am all right.

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

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.
