  • It is 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 better.  The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena...who at best, knows in the end the triumph of great achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that his place will never be with those cold, timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. -Theodore Roosevelt
  • (Proposed Epitaph) Here lies a man that thought he could, and did. -Darrell Boswell
