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 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 up
short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the
great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for 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 he fails
while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew
neither victory nor defeat. Theodore Roosevelt - Paris, April 23, 1910
