“No es el crítico lo que cuenta, ni el hombre que señala cómo el hombre fuerte dio un traspié, ni qué hubiera hecho mejor el que realizaba el acto. El crédito es del hombre que se halla en la arena, cuya cara está estropeada por el polvo, el sudor, y la sangre; que lucha esforzadamente; que se equivoca y se queda corto una y otra vez; que conoce los grandes entusiasmos, las grandes devociones, y se dedica a una buena causa; que, en el mejor de los casos, conoce al final el triunfo de una gran realización; y que, en el peor, si falla, ha hecho al menos un intento extraordinario, de modo que su lugar nunca estará cerca de aquellas almas frías y tímidas que no conocen ni la victoria ni la derrota.”
