News people were holding me up as a symbol of defiance to the boycott and I couldn't even run.

Kids are afraid that if they race too fast they will get tired. Way too much fear and way too little COURAGE.

My key to victory was that I always went out way too fast. Too fast erases every other race strategy out there. Everyone is hanging on for dear life or they give up.

Set a new standard. Change reality. Break ground to something new and different. That achievement will live forever just because you WERE somebody special!

Everyone dies whether one is good in their lifetime or evil in their lifetime. So virtue has no payback. Life is meaningless. When you die, you die!

COURAGE is not a quality you teach. Courage is the by-product of self-discipline. It is an ATTITUDE.

The FEAR of becoming dehydrated causes dehydration. As with so many things in our life, it is because we KNOW it is a problem that it is a problem.

If you KNOW dehydration is a problem in long runs it becomes a problem in long runs.

I never did cross training or lifted weights or put anything between myself and my passion for running.

I should be doing that too. I should be out there running and racing. I should be taking care of my body.

Set a master goal for your running and for your life...

Artistry is the dance of color & form, whether visual, musical, or sparked in the imagination by the written word.

Why... is human desire so unsatisfying?

It seems to me that my lack of faith is not, as I once thought, a triumph of the rational mind, but rather a failure of the imagination - an inability to tolerate mistery.

It is the favourite stratagem of our passions to sham a retreat, and to turn sharp round upon us at the moment we have made up our minds that the day is our own.

Those who are most moral are farthest from the problem.

I would choose freedom over comfort every time.

Why add prime numbers? Prime numbers are made to be multiplied, not added.

You've got people who didn't serve with John Kerry saying they did serve with John Kerry in the boat. With George Bush, we can't find anybody who did serve with him.

We should have gone over years before that. I always wanted to and I think most of the band did.

We make trifles of terrors, Ensconcing ourselves into seeming knowledge, When we should submit ourselves to an unknown fear.
