PREAMBLE
TO THE MAN IN THE ARENA

It is not the critic that counts, nor the man who points out how the
strong man stumbled 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 knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and
spends himself in a worthy cause; who at his best knows the triumph
of high achievement; and who, at his worst, if he fails, at least
fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with
those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

-- Theodore Roosevelt
