More from Teddy Roosevelt
I will accept the nomination for President if it is tendered to me, and I will adhere to this decision until the convention has expressed its preference.
I care for the great deeds of the past chiefly as spurs to drive us onward in the present.
Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built.
I want every labor man, every labor leader, every organized union man, to take the lead in denouncing crime or violence.
