Famous quotes containing the word roosevelt:
“If I am defeated for the next nomination, I think it will be by [Charles Evans] Hughes. And I dont think he will allow his name to be used unless he really feels that I have no chance to win. I do not think Theodore Roosevelt will allow his name to come before the convention.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
