I believe in keeping running simple and, in regard to shoes, that would mean no gimmicks, unnecessary cushioning, etc

The marathon can humble you.

To be a consistent winner means preparing not just one day, one month or even one year - but for a lifetime.

I believe in gradual experimentation with running shoes.

Being a runner means you are now 'free' to win and lose and live life to its fullest.

I often lose motivation, but it's something I accept as normal.

If you want to win a race you have to go a little berserk.

Anybody can be a runner. We were meant to move. We were meant to run. It's the easiest sport.

Don't feel guilty about driving somewhere nice to run. If people can drive to a park to eat hot dogs, you can drive there to run.

Runners are the ultimate celebration people. Running is just so intense, you're really experiencing life to the fullest.

I always say if the marathon is a part-time interest, you will only get part-time results.

Some dreams, some poems, some musical phrases, some pictures, wake feelings such as one never had before, new in colour and form—spiritual sensations, as it were, hitherto unproved

Motherhood is a constant battle of wanting to go to bed early so you can catch up on sleep and wanting to stay awake so you can enjoy some peace and sanity!

The best life is the one which is lived happily without being noticed by others!

The attempt to regulate, control, and prescribe all manner of conduct and social relations is very old. It was always the practice of primitive peoples.

Life and people are complex. A writer as an artist doesn't have the personality of a politician. We don't see the world that simply.

I always go to bed thinking I'm the luckiest guy in the world.

Isn't it terrible the way some unworthy folks are loved, while others that deserve it far more, you'd think, never get much affection?

When I touch a human hand, I touch heaven.

Being patient even in the thickest of storms can be the one device that may catapult you over any obstacle.

What instruction the baby brings to the mother!
