PACKET RADIO: Roosevelt Was Talking About Sysops

TEDDY ROOSEVELT'S CREED
It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how
the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have
done 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 and comes short again and again; who knows
the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and 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 know neither victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt
