“Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life. I have envied a great many people who led difficult lives and led them well.”
-Theodore Roosevelt (President, Soldier, Naturalist, Adventurer, November 4th, 1910)
Even though he was a Progressive, he’d be torn to shreds if he were around today and said that. (H/T: Soldier Systems)
