WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/3334/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>Teddy Roosevelt</b></a></p><blockquote>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 in so far as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country. In either event, it is unpatriotic not to tell the truth — whether about the President or about any one else.</blockquote><p><b>Theodore Roosevelt</b> (1858-1919) American politician, statesman, conservationist, writer, US President (1901-1909)<br>Essay (1918-05), “Lincoln and Free Speech,” <i>Metropolitan Magazine</i>, Vol. 47, No. 6</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/3334/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/roosevelt-theodore/3…</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=teddyroosevelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>teddyroosevelt</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=theodoreroosevelt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>theodoreroosevelt</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=country" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>country</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=criticism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>criticism</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>government</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=loyalty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>loyalty</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=nationalinterest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nationalinterest</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=patriotism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>patriotism</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=president" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>president</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=publicofficial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>publicofficial</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=publicservice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>publicservice</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=truthtopower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>truthtopower</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=truthtelling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>truthtelling</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=truth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>truth</span></a></p>
