It is not the critic who counts; not 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 face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasm, the great devotions; who spends himself in worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly... T. Roosevelt Daring Greatly by Brene Brown, the title goes back onto this quote, is a thoughtful book about vulnerability, shame, worthiness and wholeheartedness - about living and not just being. I recommend it to everyone.
