“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 them 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, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who 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 neither know victory nor defeat.”

Teddy Roosevelt


In light of any recent or other information being talked about that might cause you to feel one way or another, I’d like to share this Teddy Roosevelt quote that I’ve seen circulating in some subreddits lately that I believe pertains to the situation of GME investors.

I like people who put their money where their mouth is.

    just anything at all really. Different sources, critics or otherwise, like to tell certain stories or spread certain ideas. And the point here is: it’s very easy to have no skin in the game and to be a critic of those that do, and it’s another thing entirely to be someone that is in the arena.

      You don’t have to explain the quote, dog. I’m just asking what prompted it.

          Sorry to have confused you.

          I was asking what information you’ve seen lately that made you feel the need to post the quote.

          I haven’t been on Reddit and I don’t see corporate news generally. Is there news about GameStop on your mind?
