Theodore RooseveltAmericanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihood - the virtues that made America.
Theodore RooseveltThe true friend of property, the true conservative, is he who insists that property shall be the servant and not the master of the commonwealth; who insists that the creature of manโs making shall be the servant and not the master of the man who made it.

There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains. To put an end to it will be neither a short nor an easy task, but it can be done.
Theodore RooseveltWhen great nations fear to expand, shrink from expansion, it is because their greatness is coming to an end. Are we, still in the prime of our lusty youth, still at the beginning of our glorious manhood, to sit down among the outworn people, to take our place with the weak and the craven? A thousand times no!
