“The Man in the Arena”
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 the great enthusiasms, the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the
worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly….
Theodore Roosevelt’s “Citizenship in a Republic”
Sorbonne in Paris, France April 23, 1910

live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.” Charles Bernard Shaw

“I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the
harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its
own sake. Life is no “brief candle” to me. It is a sort
of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the
moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as
possible before handing it on to future generations.”
Charles Bernard Shaw
