Obedience of the law is demanded; not asked as a favor. – Theodore Roosevelt
Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure… than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat. – Theodore Roosevelt
The unforgivable crime is soft hitting. Do not hit at all if it can be avoided; but never hit softly. – Theodore Roosevelt
Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided but they are far better than certain kinds of peace. – Theodore Roosevelt
The people in power will not disappear voluntarily, giving flowers to the cops just isnt going to work. This thinking is fostered by the establishment; they like nothing better than love and nonviolence. The only way I like to see cops given flowers is in a flower pot from a high window. – William S. Burroughs
