What I stand for

"I would sooner lose in a right cause than win in a wrong cause. As long as I can distinguish between right and wrong, I shall do what I believe to be right—whatever the consequences" William E. Borah

"No public official who conscientiously discharges his duty will desire to deny those whom he serves the right to discuss his official conduct."

The New York World, August 13, 1896

"Among the free peoples who govern themselves there is but a small field of usefulness open for the men of cloistered life who shrink from contact with their fellows. Still less room is there for those who deride of slight what is done by those who actually bear the brunt of the day; nor yet for those others who always profess that they would like to take action, if only the conditions of life were not exactly what they actually are. The man who does nothing cuts the same sordid figure in the pages of history, whether he be a cynic, or fop, or voluptuary. There is little use for the being whose tepid soul knows nothing of great and generous emotion, of the high pride, the stern belief, the lofty enthusiasm, of the men who quell the storm and ride the thunder. Well for these men if they succeed; well also, though not so well, if they fail, given only that they have nobly ventured, and have put forth all their heart and strength."

Theodore Roosevelt, Citizenship in a Republic, 1910

  • The 25 DYK Medal Alansohn It is with great honor that I bestow this distinguished award in recognition of your contributions to DYK and crossing the 25-article mark, the first threshold towards making this a regular habit. Your articles have largely covered historical figures who lack the two main criteria for articles; being very notable in the past or barely notable right now. So many articles for so many people who lived just decades ago have gotten lost in the shuffle and you earned this medal by researching, creating and expanding articles on an era that has largely been ignored. My heartiest congratulations on this achievement and the hope that this will be a continuing effort on your part. Keep up the great work! --Alansohn 17:26, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
