“I care not what others think of what I do, but I care very much about what I think of what I do! That is character.”

About Theodore Roosevelt
Known both for his larger-than-life personality and his many
achievements, Theodore Roosevelt was the youngest US president at age
42. He was born in 1858 in New York. He led the Rough Riders, a motley
volunteer cavalry, to victory in the battle of San Juan Hill. As the
“Trust Buster” president, he instigated some 40 lawsuits to break up
monopolies. An ardent conservationist, he put 230 million acres under
federal protection. The Panama Canal was begun under Roosevelt. He died
in 1919.
