No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his body - to risk his well-being - to risk his life - in a great cause

No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his well-being, to risk his body, to risk his life, in a great cause.

The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything.

Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.

Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.

Let us rather run the risk of wearing out than rusting out.
