“The Man in the Arena”
Posted By thestatedtruth.com on November 25, 2017
A famous quote from Theodore Roosevelt’s “Citizen in a Republic” speech delivered in Paris, France, in 1910 was poetic indeed…..and it’s something every arm chair quarterback should at least think about!
The speech includes a passage referred to as “The Man in the Arena,” which states in part, “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 them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood.”
