"It is not the critic who counts; not the [man/woman] who points out how the strong [man/woman] stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the [man/woman] who is actually in the arena...who spends [himself/herself] in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if [he/she] fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that [his/her] place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

— Theodore Roosevelt (U.S. President 1901-1909)
