The credit belongs to those who are actually in the arena, who strive valiantly\ who know the great enthusiasm, the great devotions, and spend themselves in a worthy cause\ who at the best, know the triumph of high achievement\ and who, at the worst, if they fail, fail while daring greatly, so that their place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. ~ Theodore Roosevelt ~
