The Man in the Arena: Citizenship in a Republic “It is not the critic who counts, Not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled Or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly: who errs and comes short again and again; Who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, And spends himself in a worth cause: who, if he wins knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that this place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.” |
Douglas Malloch
"BE THE BEST OF WHATEVER YOU ARE If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill, Be a shrub in the valley---but be The best little shrub at the side of the hill; Be a bush if you can't be a tree. We can't all be captains, We've got to be crew. There's something for all of us here; There is big work to do, and there's lesser to do And the task we must do is the near. If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail, If you can't be the sun, be a star; It isn't the size that you win or you fail--- Be the best of whatever you are" |
Simon Bolivar
