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
From: Griftopia by Matt Taibbi
“...... revolutionary new vision for America’s industrial economy—one in which companies compete not on price and quality but in political influence, and earn profits not by attracting customers with good service, but by using the power of the state to protect markets and force customers into the fold.”
Sad but true!
my latest AMERICAN HERO..he doesnt carry a gun...he carries something more important to me..a conscience.. We ARE at war here at home...he used moral compass and a willingness to say there is a limit to the madness he will participate in and ruining someones home, life and our country is no longer something he is willing to do..I THANK HIM for that...others please come forth..we want you to have great jobs in clean energy not jobs that kill you and us
