Teddy Roosevelt: “We have just cause for pride in the character of our representatives who have administered the tropic islands.”

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 congratulate you thereon.

Don’t you pity me. I am all right.

I am all right and you cannot escape listening to the speech either.
