It is not the critic who counts, nor 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 vision is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and come up short again and again, who knows great devotion, and spends himself in a worth cause.
Who, at best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.
-Theadore Roosevelt

__"Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President or any other public official. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country."
-Theodore Roosevelt ____________________________________________________________
__"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."
-Mark Twain ____________________________________________________________
