Of champions, with particular reference to Theodore Roosevelt's great speech 'The man in the arena', April 23, 1910, the Sorbonne, Paris.
by Dr. Jeffrey Lant I had been expecting this call for some time. I knew that she was working hard, too hard. She was distressed, distraught, unhappy.... wondering if her extraordinary efforts were appreciated, wondering in fact whether they were regarded and understood by anyone, much less everyone. It is a call every winner makes at one time or another, for every winner knows dark moments. I listened to the onrush of heated, passionate language until it was spent.
