Adapted from the famous speech by Teddy Roosevelt, this quote will inspire all who read it. Makes a great graduation gift or going through a difficult time. The was speech called The Man in the Arena, or false Citizenship in a Republic. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valuable; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does atually strive to do the deeds; who knows great thusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best know in the end of the triumph high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails to fail while greatly, so place shall never be with those and timid souls who cold know victory defective.
