Inspirational Quote
I am busy writing at the moment so I am going to just post an inspirational quote for the day. It’s from Theodore Roosevelt. He isn’t speaking about writing, but I find that it can apply. It’s about working hard, trying again and again and putting your heart and soul into something.
It’s not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or when the doer of deeds could have done 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 and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worth 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 know neither victory or defeat.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Ooo, that’s one of my favorite writing quotes. =o) Too bad it’s a little long for the top of my blog, though.
