Teddy Roosevelt: “The man who seeks to inspire one set of Americans to hate another because of difference of creed, because of difference…”

Don’t you pity me. I am all right.

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

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.
