“It is not the critic who counts…” Theodore Roosevelt

“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

    I had this quote on MySpace, when I was using that. Had forgotten about it.. so glad to run into this again so I can repost and share, also so I can be reminded of what my life is about.
  • Thank you, Joseph, so much for reminding us of these great words. We should probably never begin a day without reading them first.
