• Theodore Roosevelt It is not the critic who
  counts, not the man who points out how the strong
  man stumbles or where the doers 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 sweat blood, who strives
  valiantly, who errs comes short again again
  because there is no effort without error
  short-comings, who knows the great devotion, who
  spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best
  knows in the end the high achievement of triumph
  who at worst, if he fails while daring greatly,
  knows his place shall never be with those timid
  cold souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
