No one has achieved significant in life who fears failure: PM advises youth

No one has achieved significant in life who fears failure: PM advises youth
September 9, 2019
ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Prime Minister Imran Khan has advised the youth of Pakistan that no one has achieved significant in life who fears failure. The prime minster took his twitter on Monday and said, “The best advice for the youth of Pakistan: No one has ever achieved anything significant in life who fears failure or criticism.” While advising to the youth of Pakistan, PM Imran Khan also cited a quotation of former US President Theodore Roosevelt on the subject. The prime minister shared the image of quotation in his tweet. The quote is an excerpt of Theodore Roosevelt’s historical speech “Citizenship in the Republic” delivered on April 23, 1910, at the University of Paris. “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 them 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, 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 himself in 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 fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” ‏
