More From Theodore Roosevelt

I'm so tired of the left trying to divide us by race. one of the things i said today in my speech, we're not indian-americans, african-americans, irish-americans, rich americans, poor americans. we're all americans.
Tired Race African American
There is no room in this country for hyphenated americanism. when i refer to hyphenated americans, i do not refer to naturalized americans. some of the very best americans i have ever known were naturalized americans, americans born abroad. but a hyphenated american is not an american at all.

Know the difference between a catastrophe and an inconvenience. - to realize that it's just an inconvenience, that it is not a catastrophe, but just an unpleasantness, is part of coming into your own, part of waking up.

The notion that one will not survive a particular catastrophe is, in general terms, a comfort since it is equivalent to abolishing the catastrophe.
Survival Comfort Literature
Oh, what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth. oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was a personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox!
Taken Cutting Men
Dynamic ecstasy is absolute romanticism , absolute heroism . and here i return to my point. from my point of view, after the catastrophe which we feel and think is universal, a catastrophe resulting from an excess of useless dynamism of useless progress, of useless realism, of useless technology, after this an unattainable democracy is to be reached through the conception and realization of a new romanticism.

I'm sure that in the fullness of time we'll learn that one or more of these seemingly promising technologies were dead ends. and that's the nature of innovation, and that's why we should spread our bets; we should not put our eggs in any one basket. some of these will be grand successes, some of them will be average, and some of them will be abject failures.
Technology Average Eggs
The success of this government, and thus the success of our nation, depends in the last analysis upon the quality.of our career services. the legislation enacted by the congress, as well as the decisions made by me and by the department and agency heads, must all be implemented by the career men and women in the federal service. in foreign affairs, national defense, science and technology, and a host of other fields, they face problems of unprecedented importance and perplexity. we are all dependent on their sense of loyalty and responsibility as well as their competence and energy.

The two areas that are changing... are information technology and medical technology. those are the things that the world will be very different 20 years from now than it is today.
