"It is not the critic who counts. Not the man who
points out how the strong
man stumbled or where 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
short
again and again; who knows the 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, at least fails
while
daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those timid
souls who
know neither victory nor defeat."
- Theodore Roosevelt |

started playing football at Spring Hill as a freshman. “I had a really
good time (at the Moms intro to football practice),” she said. “I
learned that it was more difficult than what it looks. They have to
memorize so many plays. Not only is it a brutal sport but they have to
work as a team and memorize so much.” |

being clever. Trust rather to hard work, perseverance and

of the finest attributes of manliness." From the book The Dangerous
Book for Boys. |
