In a speech entitled "Citizenship in a Republic," delivered April 23,
1910 in Paris, President Theodore Roosevelt said, "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."
