"It is not the critic who
counts; not the man who
points out how the strong
man stumbles, or where
the doer of deeds could
have done them better.
The credit belongs to the
man who is actually in
the arena, whose face is
marred by dust and sweat
and blood; who strives
valiantly; who errs, who
comes short again and
again, because there is
no effort without error
and shortcoming; but who
does actually strive to
do the deeds; who knows
great enthusiasms, the
great devotions; who
spends himself in a
worthy cause; who at the
best knows in the end the
triumph of high
achievement, and who at
the worst, if he fails,
at least fails while
daring greatly, so that
his place shall never be
with those cold and timid
souls who neither know
victory nor defeat"
-Theodore Roosevelt
