Always, if you win mentally, you can win physically as well.

All athletes need three things: commitment, discipline and hard work. Without that it's hard to keep running.

When you run the marathon, you run against the distance, not against the other runners and not against the time.

Once you have commitment, you need the discipline and hard work to get you there.

I always tell young athletes the same thing, 'Wherever you go, whatever you do, what must your top priority be? Running.'

For me a day without training is like a day without eating.

You must do as your people do. If my people are poor, I must be poor. People ask me, 'Why don't you find a personal coach or a private car?' I can't. Then I won't be part of my people.

You need three things to win: discipline, hard work and, before everything maybe, commitment. No one will make it without those three. Sport teaches you that.

I will always listen to my coaches. But first I listen to my body. If what they tell me suits my body, great. If my body doesn't feel good with what they say, then always my body comes first.

It is not my duty to spend my money in my country, but it is what I want to do. There is nowhere else I would like to invest.

I love running and I will always run.

Those of you who are not aware of my brilliant career as a stand up comic, I'm not aware of it either so we might well wonder what we're doing here.

Life is just too beautiful if meaning is attached to it, and useless when meaningless!!

No one, in the end, made it out of this life alive.

Fixing obesity is going to require a change in our modern relationship with food. I'm hopeful that we begin to see a turnaround in this childhood obesity epidemic.

I think that most writers who wait until they're inspired to write are just waiting for the fear to subside.

The training of children is a profession, where we must know how to waste time in order to save it.

I agree that we need a working relationship with Russia to deescalate a nuclear arms race, to resolve the crisis in Syria.

Thanks to impermanence, everything is possible.
