It is not the critic who counts, not the person who points out where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the person 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; who knows the great enthusiasms, the devotions, and spends himself or herself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and at the worst, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his or her place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat. Theodore Roosevelt

Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it. Ralph Marston

I think I will never run out of things to accomplish, as long as I'm alive, because there's so much to learn, and so much to do. I always feel like I have so much further to go personally, spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. Queen Latifah
