“We admire the man who embodies victorious effort; the man who never wrongs his neighbor, who is prompt to help a friend, but who has those virile qualities necessary to win in the stern strife of actual life. It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. In this life we get nothing save by effort.”—Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States (1858-1919), “The Strenuous Life,” address delivered in Chicago, Apr. 10, 1899
