It is not the critic who counts...
"It is not the critic who counts... The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the 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 knew neither victory nor defeat." -Theodore Roosevelt

A local fellow who just announced he is running for state rep included this in his announcement. I thought you all might appreciate it as much as I did. I've heard it before, but I'd forgotten it until I got the email today. It seems particularly appropriate these days.
