About This Design
Man In The Arena Mug
Get the same mug Ben Greenfield sips coffee from every morning, and the same quote that inspires thousands around the globe to achieve greatness.
Citizenship in a Republic is the title of a speech given by the former President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne in Paris, France on April 23, 1910, and one notable passage on page seven of the 35-page speech is referred to as "The Man in the Arena". It goes like this:
"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."
Someone who is heavily involved in a situation that requires courage, skill, or tenacity (as opposed to someone sitting on the sidelines and watching), is often referred to as "the man in the arena." And whether YOU are a man or a woman, this mug can fill your thoughts with valiant striving every single morning. Enjoy!
