A brother convinced that he is helpful is enthusiastic  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) Appraisals are where you get together with your team leader and agree what an outstanding member of the team you are, how much your contribution has been valued, what massive potential you have and, in recognition of all this, would you mind having your salary halved  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) To waste, to destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them amplified and developed  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) The great body of our citizens shoot less as times goes on. We should encourage rifle practice among schoolboys, and indeed among all classes, as well as in the military services by every means in our power. Thus, and not otherwise, may we be able to assist in preserving peace in the world... The first step – in the direction of preparation to avert war if possible, and to be fit for war if it should come – is to teach men to shoot!  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) There is a delight in the hardy life of the open. There are no words that can tell the hidden spirit of the wilderness, that can reveal its mystery, its melancholy and its charm. The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation increased; and not impaired in value. Conservation means development as much as it does protection  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other public official, save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;... who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) There must be no division by class hatred, whether this hatred be that of creed against creed, nationality against nationality, section against section, or men of one social or industrial condition against men of another social and industrial condition. We must ever judge each individual on his own conduct and merits, and not on his membership in any class, whether that class be based on theological, social, or industrial considerations  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in that grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

All that we can determine for ourselves is whether we shall meet them well or ill  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) No one of us can make the world move on very far, but it moves at all only when each one of a very large number does his duty  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) We can afford to differ on the currency, the tariff, and foreign policy; but we cannot afford to differ on the question of honesty if we expect our republic permanently to endure  (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes) No man should be held excusable if he does not perform what he promises, unless for the best and most sufficient reason.
