"It is not the
critic who counts, nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done 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 and comes short again
and again. Who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotions, and spends
himself in a worthy cause. Who at best, knows in the end the triumph of
high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring
greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
who know neither victory nor defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
