Why should you row a boat race? Why endure the long months of pain - TopicsExpress



          

Why should you row a boat race? Why endure the long months of pain in preparation for a fierce half hour that will leave you all but dead? Does anyone ask the question? Is there anyone who would not go through all the costs, and more, for the moment when anguish breaks into triumph or even for the glory of having nobly lost? Is life less than a boat race? If a man will give the blood in his body to win the one, will he spend all the might of his soul to prevail in the other? - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (Harvard 1861, Captain US Army 1861-65, Supreme Court Justice 1902 - 1932) https://youtube/watch?v=i8ewDewMXTw
