The strength and spirit
you fight with,
the dream and hope
to win it,
the love for your people and country
you do it for
not knowing if you'll ever return.

It wasn't said by me, but my favorite quote is: "Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves." - Brendan Francis
