This quote is actually from Theodore Roosevelt, United States President:

"In the battle of life, it is not the critic who counts; nor the one who
points out how the strong person stumbled, or where the doer of a deed could
have done better. 

The credit belongs to the person who is actually in the arena; whose face is
marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and
comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and
shortcoming; who does actually strive to do deeds; who knows the great
enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends oneself in a worthy cause; who at
the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst,
if he or she fails, at least fails while daring greatly. 

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though
checkered by failure, than to rank with those timid spirits who neither
enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows
neither victory nor defeat."
