Thought of the Day
Gladiator in arena consilium capit.
Seneca
The swordsman is making his plan in the sand.
The helpful translation guide says that this is a saying to use when a person makes a plan too late (in the arena). I prefer to think it's better used when a person is planning right out in the open (in the sand). Since arena means sand, tough call to make which is right.

Who said:"The credit goes to the man in the arena."
Maybe the whole thing should be:"The credit goes to the man who is making his plan in the sand in the arena."

I think your first question's answer is Teddy Roosevelt, but I could be wrong. What did you think of Rome?
