| "The
opposition to reform is generally well led by skilled parliamentarians,
and they fight with the vindictiveness natural to men who
see a chance of striking at the institution which has baffled
their greed. These men have a gift at office-mongering, just
as other men have a peculiar knack at picking pockets; and
they are joined by all the honest dull men, who vote wrong
out of pure ignorance, and by a very few sincere and intelligent,
but wholly misguided people." |

| "A
man's usefulness depends upon his living up to his ideals
in so far as he can. Now I have consistently preached what
our opponents are pleased to call 'Jingo Doctrines' for a
good many years. One of the commonest taunts directed at men
like myself is that we are armchair and parlor Jingos who
wish to see others do what we only advocate doing. I care
very little for such a taunt, except as it affects my usefulness;
but I cannot afford to disregard that fact that my power for
good, whatever it may be, would be gone if I didn't try to
live up to the doctrines I have to preach." |

| "As
for the political effect of my actions, in the first place,
I never can get on in politics, and in the second, I would
rather have led that charge and earned my colonelcy than served

could now leave something to my children which will serve

"The
Man in the Arena"
quote from that "Citizenship in a Republic" speech becomes
world-famous:
"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 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
up short again and again, because there is no effort without
error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms,
the great devotions, who spends himself for 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
he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never
be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory
nor defeat."

| "
The kind of 'neutrality' which seeks to preserve 'peace' by
timidly refusing to live up to our plighted word and to denounce
and take action against such wrong as that committed in the
case of Belgium, is unworthy of an honorable and powerful
people. Dante reserved a special place of infamy in the Inferno
for those base angels who dared side neither with evil or
with good. Peace is ardently to be desired, but only as the
handmaiden of righteousness. There can be no such peace until
well-behaved, highly civilized small nations are protected
from oppression and subjugation." |
