"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; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again. because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in 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 fails daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat".
(Theodore Roosevelt)

"When living in very critical entourages, one thing that i think it's very important to be clear about is that when you start to dare greatly, when you start to be vulnerable and take chances you are going to be holding a very uncomfortable mirror for people. In a lot of times, when surrounded by people who tell you "i told you so" or who are critical it's because daring greatly, to watch someone be vulnerable and risk, to watch someone walk head long into uncertainty is so uncomfortable for people who are not willing to do that, that they're dying to see failure and to point it out as confirmation to the fact that "my way of living is ok."
