The Goldberger-Treiman relation $M=2pi/sqrt{3}f^{rm cl}_pi$ where $M$ is the constituent quark mass in the chiral limit (cl) and $f^{rm cl}_pi$ the pion decay constant in the chiral limit predicts constituent quark masses of $m_u=328.8pm 1.1$ MeV and $m_d=332.3pm 1.1$ MeV for the up and down quark, respectively, when $f^{rm cl}_pi=89.8pm 0.3$ MeV is adopted. Treating the constituent quarks as bare Dirac particles the following zero order values $mu^{(0)}}_p=2.850pm 0.009$ and $mu^{(0)}}_n= -1.889pm 0.006$ are obtained for the proton and neutron magnetic moments, leading to deviations from the experimental data of 2.0% and 1.3%, respectively. These unavoidable deviations are discussed in terms of contributions to the magnetic moments proposed in previous work.
