Quotes by Edmund Lester Pearson (?)

“Some people really think that great wealth makes crime respectable, and if it is pointed out to a wealthy but dishonest man, that he is merely a common thief, and if in addition, the fact is proved to everybody's satisfaction, his anger is noticeable.”
― Edmund Lester Pearson, Theodore Roosevelt

“What we need," he wrote, "is to turn out of colleges young men with ardent convictions on the side of right; not young men who can make a good argument for either right or wrong, as their interest bids them.”
― Edmund Lester Pearson, Theodore Roosevelt
