This is my favorite non-Christian quote. It is accredited to Theodore Roosevelt. I think I've paraphrased a little. When I worked with a community college basketball team, this was the last page of the work out program:
In The Arena It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where a doer of a deed could have done better. This credit belongs to the man who is in the arena. The man whose face is covered by sweat, who strives valiantly, who comes up short again and again, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who knows high achievement in the end, and if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So this place shall never be with those timid souls who know neither victory or defeat. Victory or defeat belong to the man in the arena.
Sounds like powerlifters don't it, Ted.
