Theodore Roosevelt actually said...

"I believe in the Monroe doctrine, and I believe in it not as an empty formula of words, but as something we are ready to make good by deeds."

"I believe in doing all we can to avoid a quarrel, to avoid trouble."

"We can solve aright all the difficult problems that come up because of and through our modern civilization."

"To think of the well-nigh incredible fact that all of this that I have been looking at—the city, the development of the country—that it has all occurred within twenty years."
