Considering that the race is star-studded no runner will be willing to set the pace for the others. This is why a record will be almost impossible.

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.'

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

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.

Find your safe space. Approach it with grace. Listen to your body. And give yourself the permission to feel overwhelmed. You've weathered harsher storms. And the blue skies? They're on their way.

Maybe they seeded life on Earth millions of years ago, and now they're here to punish us for turning out to be such a lame species and inventing reality TV and shit?

The precision of naming takes away from the uniqueness of seeing.

The truth is, most of us discover where we are headed when we arrive.

I don't think success is what we've made of ourselves; I think it's what we've made of others.

We aren't using Guantanamo Bay anymore to take additional terrorists. That was the perfect facility to be able to use to extract information from people to keep the American people safe.

A statesman's words, like butcher's meat, should be well weighed.

The people who live in a golden age usually go around complaining how yellow everything looks.

With my luck, if I ever invested in General Motors, they'd bust it to Corporal!

After law school, I had the opportunity to clerk for a tremendous judge, Leonard I. Garth, on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit, the court to which I was appointed in 1990.
