What is the truth meaning of this quote?
Quote:
It's not the critic who counts. Not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled. Or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena. Whose face marred by the dust and sweat and blood. Who strives valiantly. Who errs and comes short again and again. Who know the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in the worthy cause. Who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement. And who, at worst, if he fails...at least fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls...who know neither victory or defeat.What's the meaning of 'doer of deeds' in the quote?

Answer

The whole quote means, it is the person who tries and succeeds/fails who is worth something - not the person who does not try and only criticises the efforts of others who are not afraid to fail.

Now to answer your question - the doer of deeds simply means - someone who does things

A deed in this context means: an action that is performed intentionally or consciously.

(Nb: you question should read - What is the true meaning of this quote? - or a better way to say it would be - what does this quote mean?)

Hope this helps :)
