Personally, I always felt times aren't so excellent as are performances.

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.

Passion is a blazing flame.

I love to both give and receive very old books.

The best thing about becoming successful is that you get flowers all the time.

The horror of wedlock, the most appalling, the most loathsome of all the bonds humankind has devised for its own discomfort and degradation.

The highest form of love is to be the protector of another person’s solitude.

How many discoveries are reserved for the ages to come when our memory shall be no more, for this world of ours contains matter for investigation for all generations.

It is a cliche that most cliches are true, but then like most cliches, that cliche is untrue.

The past does not influence me; I influence it.
