More From Theodore Roosevelt

We pick our own sorrows out of the joys of other men, and from their sorrows likewise we derive our joys.
Men Joy Sorrow
The idea that hispanics or women or any other group of people think alike, vote alike? that's what democrats want. they want mind-numbed robots who all think alike and who all vote alike. it's easy! you dumb them down, you get rid of critical thinking, and you just have a blob, basically, out there of people that look for the d on the ballot and pull the lever.
Thinking Ideas People
Alike and ever alike, we are on all continents in the need of love, food, clothing, work, speech, worship, sleep, games, dancing, fun. from tropics to arctics humanity live with these needs so alike, so inexorably alike.
Fun Sleep Games
No man could bring himself to reveal his true character, and, above all, his true limitations as a citizen and a christian, his true meannesses, his true imbecilities, to his friends, or even to his wife. honest autobiography is therefore a contradiction in terms: the moment a man considers himself, even in petto, he tries to gild and fresco himself. thus a man's wife, however realistic her view of him, always flatters him in the end, for the worst she sees in him is appreciably better, by the time she sees it, than what is actually there.
Christian Character Men
My lord jesus has fully recompensed my sadness with his joys, my losses with his own presence. i find it a sweet and rich thing to exchange my sorrows with christ's joys, my afflictions with that sweet peace i have with himself.
Sweet Jesus Sadness
One does not really feel much grief at other people's sorrows; one tries, and puts on a melancholy face, thinking oneself brutal for not caring more; but one cannot and it is better, for if one grieved too deeply at other people's tears, life would be unendurable; and every man has sufficient sorrows of his own without taking to heart his neighbour's.
Grief Heart Caring
Similar Quotes
But you can’t get to any of these truths by sitting in a field smiling beatifically, avoiding your anger and damage and grief. your anger and damage and grief are the way to the truth. we don’t have much truth to express unless we have gone into those rooms and closets and woods and abysses that we were told not go in to. when we have gone in and looked around for a long while, just breathing and finally taking it in – then we will be able to speak in our own voice and to stay in the present moment. and that moment is home.
Grief Home Voice
Verily, i swear, it is better to be lowly born, and range with humble livers in content, than to be perked up in a glistering grief, and wear a golden sorrow.
Grief Humble Sorrow
Recipe for greatness - to bear up under loss; to fight the bitterness of defeat and the weakness of grief; to be victor over anger; to smile when tears are close; to resist disease and evil men and base instincts; to hate hate and to love love; to go on when it would seen good to die; to look up with unquenchable faith in something ever more about to be. that is what any man can do, and be great.
Hate Grief Fighting
Sorrow is so easy to express and yet so hard to tell.
