"It's 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 person who is in the arena. Whose face is marred with dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly ... who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly ..." Theodore Roosevelt
" Avoiding vulnerability and heartache, doesn't make you strong or resilient. Standing in the feeling of it all and remaining strong, being unchanged regardless of the outcome, that is strength ." - The Vera Wood Files
