"It's 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 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 and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worse, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold a timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat"

...I've never seen a rider with more critics over ever detail than James Stewart.
Certainly James has dealt with other issues that some riders may not but when it comes to the effort and determination required for this sport that this quote seems to refer to it could apply to any one of them that lines up at the gate every week.
