It is not the man who points out where the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done better.
It is the man who is actually in the arena…
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs, who falls short again and again, who spends himself at a worthy cause…
It is the man, who in the end, at best, knows the triumph of high achievement, but who – if failing – at least greatly so that his place shall never be among those timid souls who know neither Victory nor Defeat.
