The credit belongs to the woman 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 herself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if she fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that her place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” — Theodore Roosevelt Materials & Details Available in 5×7, 8×10, and 11×14 inches Optional dark brown wood frame available Does not include glass (intentionally omitted to preserve the leather) If framing yourself, do not use glass Crafted from 100% genuine leather Ethically sourced in the United States as a by-product of the food industry Natural, durable, and environmentally conscious Because this is real leather, each piece carries subtle natural variations, making every artwork uniquely one of a kind.
