Worse than that Mr. Lawrence, the grandchildren are slaves who demand more chains in order to feel safer.
Unfortunately so....
Sadly we are most of us born in the circus.
I knew that I was since a long time ago
Great group
Thanks... they turned me on.
It's unlikely the attributed quote was said by Teddy Roosevelt. It's said to have been been made after his death by an unknown source. He did say this tho, which is in line with the meme.
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 while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Thanks for the words he did say.
It is a better to know the actual words said.
The whining quote summarizes part of Roosevelt's quote.
