原文：羅斯福的勵志金句
在纽约市的美国自然历史博物馆（American Museum of Natural History) ，入口大堂内，四边墙上刻有前美国总统罗斯福Theodore Roosevelt对青少年、男儿气概、国家和大自然这几方面的励志金言，全都很有意思的名句，谨在此与大家一起分享。

YOUTH青少年
I want to see you game, boys, I want to see you brave and manly, and I also want to see you gentle and tender. (Address at Friends School, Washington, DC, May 24, 1907) Be practical as well are generous in your ideals. Keep your eyes on the stars, but remember to keep your feet on the ground. (Speech at Prize Day Exercises at Groton School, Groton, MA, May 24 1904) Courage, hard work, self-mastery, and intelligent effort are all essential to successful life. (America and the World War, 1915) Alike for the nation and the individual, the one indispensable requisite is character. (American Ideals, 1897) . |

MANHOOD男儿气概
A man's usefulness depends upon his living up to his ideals in so far as he can. (A Letter to Dr. Sturgis Bigelow, March 29, 1898) It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. (The Strenuous Life, 1900) All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune make for a finer and nobler type of manhood. (Address to Naval War College, June 2, 1897) Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. (The Great Adventure, 1918) . |

THE STATE国家
Ours is a government of liberty by, through, and under the law. (Speech at Spokane, WA, May 26, 1903) A great democracy has got to be progressive or it will soon cease to be great or a democracy. (The New Nationalism, 1910) Order without liberty and liberty without order are equally destructive. (Miscellaneous Writings, c. 1890s) In popular government results worth having can be achieved only by men who combine worthy ideals with practical good sense. (Address at Harvard Union, Feb. 23, 1907) If I must choose between righteousness and peace I choose righteousness. (America and the World War, 1915) . |

NATURE大自然
There is delight in the hardy life of the open. (African Game Trails, 1910) There are no words that can tell the hidden spirit of the wilderness, that can reveal its mystery, its melancholy, and its charm. (African Game Trails, 1910) The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation increased and not impaired in value. (The New Nationalism, 1910) Conservation means development as much as it does protection. (The New Nationalism, 1910) . |

我也有一句：我们每个人都会为自己的失败找借口，而不会为自己的成功找方向…
@无名 @无名, 应该换一下：我们每个人都应为自己的失败找原因，进而为自己的成功找到方向。
我看过一部阴谋论的美国社科片。里面说罗斯福并不是什么好人,而911是inside job。
名言确实强。
罗斯福是谁？
@午夜兰花手札 @午夜兰花手札, ⊙﹏⊙b汗，开篇就讲了，美国总统~呵呵
罗斯福，身残志坚，连任四届美国总统。年轻时狂妄不以。曾有四个情妇。
@少杰 @少杰, 你读过《罗斯福传》？
年轻人，应该记住这些。
中国的孩子更应该多看看这些。
罗斯福是传奇！

您好！每天都拜读您的文章，学到不少东西。想请您指点一下，我想在假期利用网络来学习英语。可不知道通过什么途径。谢谢！
@shengdu @shengdu, 如果坚持看一些好的英文网站，你以为如何？
经典+实在…吸收、消化、利己利人利国利世界。
传奇只能是过去啊，
@奋飞 @奋飞, 若有这样的思想，放到今天，是不是一样可以成就伟大的事业？
当这些句子渗入你的精神，并表现出来。你终将成为世人眼中的传奇
@shiki1900 @shiki1900, 当这种精神融入行为，并自动自发表现出来，言语才真正表现出它的魅力。
他只是个传说，俺才是现在
来看看！
美国总统1910年就能提出“环保”口号，可见其文明度之高，我们要学的还有很多！
謝謝轉載，感到很榮幸。
很令人深思！不过如今有很多的名人名句都互相矛盾。所以还是在于自己怎样去做，骨子里去推崇什么……
呵呵,关键的不是句子,而是自己.
虚荣心是一个屏障，只有打破这个屏障，才能将属于自己的气魄释放出来。这样才能打造一个不同于大众的人。
@独裁者 @独裁者, 虚荣心是一种损人不利己的心理，源头是不是太爱面子？
耶稣：你们得不着，是因为你们不求。你们求也得不着，是因为你们妄求。
虚荣心可以认为是恶念滋生的温床么？
@ruthe1 @ruthe1, 可以喜欢，不必虚荣！
人无完人，挑选适合你的吧！
嗯… 好像翻译和转载不是同义词吧？
