I followed the link and eventually saw something written by the police chief about a complaint that there were too many police officers there. After a bit of a back story this chief mentioned that he tells his aspiring police chiefs these words from Theodore Roosevelt, from 1910:
“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.”
Those words made me think of President Trump as well as police officers, firemen, and those serving our country. Honorable people, all.
Greaty quote. Thanks for sharing it.
