"It is not the critic who counts,
not the man who points out how the strong man
stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done
better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually
in the arena;
whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and
blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs and comes
short again and again;
who knows the great enthusiasms,
the great devotions and spends himself in a
worthy course;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph
of high achievement,
and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails
while daring greatly;
so that his place shall never be with those
cold and timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
"I'll be sober tomorrow, but you'll be crazy for the rest of your life."

(in reply to an accusation of drunkenness)
Big shots are only little shots who keep
shooting.
Christopher Morley
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
