I like this Teddy Roosevelt quote. [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Theodore_Roosevelt&curid=10124&diff=691825&oldid=690100&rcid=757767] Should we add it to our guidelines? --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:32, 12 August 2009 (EDT)

Maybe even just, ''The function of the mere critic is of very subordinate usefulness. It is the doer of deeds who actually counts in the battle for life, and not the man who looks on and says how the fight ought to be fought, without himself sharing the stress and the danger.''
Oddly enough, i came across similar quote while searching on Islamic issues. When i see something useful i try to add it to a CP page.
Here is another ones i added to the [[Theodore Roosevelt]] page:
''A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education.''
''...any nation which in its youth lives only for the day, reaps without sowing, and consumes without husbanding, must expect the penalty of the prodigal whose labor could with difficulty find him the bare means of life.''
''The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything.''
''A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education.''
''To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.''
''Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.'' (and some make T.R. [[liberal]])
''It is better to be faithful than famous.''
''A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad.''
