“A soft, easy life is not worth living, if it impairs the fibre of brain and heart and muscle. We must dare to be great; and we must realize that greatness is the fruit of toil and sacrifice and high courage… For us is the life of action, of strenuous performance of duty; let us live in the harness, striving mightily; let us rather run the risk of wearing out than rusting out.” – Theodore Roosevelt [1]

Great quote. It defines the difference between AmeriCANS and so many of today’s AmeriCAN’TS.
I think the demographics may be changing soon.

“Theodore Roosevelt the father of modern day Progressives.”
Can’t argue with that.
