"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 Grinding in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who Grinds valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no Grinding without error and shortcoming; but who does actually Grind to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who Grinds 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 Grinding greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who haven't Grinded towards neither victory nor defeat."

I respect the hell out of this grind.
