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 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 and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for 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 he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

mwgr5 posted this in the student life forum recently:

"Most people don't care about truly learning. The point of high school is to get into college and the point of college is to get a job. Any way that gets your through college to the desired job is the way most take. This path often doesn't require in depth knowledge or reasoning. No everyone wants to learn in school, some just learn to play the game to get where they want."

Bonus points if you give a really sappy speech but sneak this somewhere in the middle and pretend that nothing happened, especially at the post-graduation festivities.

I opened with a paragraph or so describing what graduation was/meant to some students and used some metaphors and [censored] then said "But I think Martin Luther King Jr. said it best when he spoke the famous words FREE AT LAST FREE AT LAST THANK GOD ALL MIGHTY WE ARE FREE AT LAST"

obv yelled the last part as if I was a riled up mlk, it killed.

then again i was student body president so if you're going to do the whole "hay im smart and this is serious' then it might not work

"Well, I believe in the soul, the [c-word for male genitals], the pussy, the small of a woman's back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days."

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.

You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.

I believe, umm, that certain people in life are meant to fall by the wayside; to serve as warnings to the rest of us; signs posts along the way.
