Every day gives you an opportunity to improve. With every run, you can try to be better. Not just a better runner, but a better person.

The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.

We run to undo the damage we've done to body and spirit. We run to find some part of ourselves yet undiscovered.

Being inspired is fine for a week, and being motivated might work for a month or so, but to make any lifestyle change last a lifetime, you need dedication.

I am a runner because I run. Not because I run fast. Not because I run far. I am a runner because I say I am. And no one can tell me I'm not.

Focus on where you are instead of where you wish you were. The joy will follow.

I didn't train all that time just to come here and get it over with as fast as I can

Running is not just exercise; it is a lifestyle.

It was being a runner that mattered, not how fast or how far I could run. The joy was in the act of running and in the journey, not in the destination.

The joy is in the journey, not the destination. We have a better chance of seeing where we are when we stop trying to get somewhere else.

I'm not saying running could solve all of the world's problems, but I think it would be a good start.

It's the family you choose that counts.

The goal of life isn't to make lots of money. Its to make a life that means EXCLUSIVE.

If you observe the pace of my breaths, you won't need to listen to my words.

I don't want to talk about methods of killing. But what is the difference between a bomb worn on the body and one dropped from an airplane? Both of them kill people.

In the deepest sense the search for extraterrestrial intelligence is a search for ourselves.

Nothing about me surprises me.

I realised that if I did what I wanted to do, it would work.

You tend to get a script and you push it toward being the kind of film you want to make.

Tomorrow morning the critic will be gone, but the writer will still be there facing the blank page. Nothing matters but that he keep working.

In every object there is inexhaustible meaning.
