"Champions Don't Become Champions in the Ring ~ They Are Merely Recognized There" John Maxwell
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the does of deeds could have done them better. The credit belong 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 worthy cause; who, at 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 nor defeat" President Theodore Roosevelt, using boxing analogy
