Theodore Roosevelt
  • A man who is good enough to shed his blood for the country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards.

  • The best executive is one who has sense enough to pick good people to do what he wants done, and self-restraint enough to keep from meddling with them while they do it.

  • The first requisite of a good citizen in this republic of ours is that he shall be able and willing to pull his own weight.

  • Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.

  • The government is us we are the government, you and I.
