“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”
– Theodore Roosevelt
Recently I visited The Alamo. The effect it had on me was to evaluate my own life. Hundreds of people died that day, few survived, and fewer names are remembered. Every breath I breathe is adding to my life, every person I meet, place I go, thing I do, adds to my identity. I am creating History every second, but the real struggle is deciding what history is worth creating, and if anyone will remember it.
– Theodore Roosevelt
