“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.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt. - Mark Twain

"We of the great modern democracies must strive unceasingly to make our several countries lands in which a poor man who works hard can live comfortably and honestly, and in which a rich man cannot live dishonestly nor in slothful avoidance of duty; and yet we must judge rich man and poor man alike by a standard which rests in conduct and not on caste, and we must frown with the same stern severity on the mean and vicious envy which hates and would plunder a man because he is well off and on the brutal and selfish arrogance which looks down on and exploits the man with whom life has gone hard."
Theodore Roosevelt

This is probably my favorite quote, T-Rex actually posted it before and I loved it. It goes something like this...
"If you shoot for good enough, you'll have to redo it. If you shoot for perfection, it'll be good enough."
"If you shoot for good enough, you'll have to redo it. If you shoot for perfection, it'll be good enough."
I've said it before and will say it again.
You can seem like a millionaire to one person and homeless to the next.
Ants think you are a giant and the trees don't even notice you.
You think you have a boring life, but the next person might be striving for your lifestyle.
Comparison is the thief of joy, so stay kind and deep loving of life.
