I love me some quotes.
 
This is also from Roosevelt's speech in France "A Man in the Arena":

"There is little use for the being whose tepid soul knows nothing of great and generous emotion, of the high pride, the stern belief, the lofty enthusiasm, of the men who quell the storm and ride the thunder. Well for these men if they succeed; well also, though not so well, if they fail, given only that they have nobly ventured, and have put forth all their heart and strength. It is war-worn Hotspur, spent with hard fighting, he of the many errors and valiant end, over whose memory we love to linger, not over the memory of the young lord who "but for the vile guns would have been a valiant soldier." Roosevelt.
 
"I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step. If that is of
no avail, I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time
is not too difficult.... I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete
any undertaking."
