More quotes for today

It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or the doer of deeds could have done 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 and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best,now, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place will never be with those cold and timid souls who never knew victory or defeat.--
Theodore Roosevelt

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are--
Theodore Roosevelt

"What is the most important thing to do for a man to become a champion?"
"Fight one more round"--
Prizefighter James Corbett

"Never give in, never give in, never, never, never in nothing, great or small except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never give in.
Winston Churchill

I don't know what the secret to sucess, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone.--
Unknown
