We were born to run; we were born because we run.

If you don't think you were born to run you're not only denying history. You're denying who you are.

If you don't have answers to your problems after a four-hour run, you ain't getting them.

The reason we race isn't so much to beat each other... but to be with each other.

You don't stop running because you get old, you get old because you stop running.

Running is the heart of what it means to be human.

You don't have to be fast. But you'd better be fearless.

Some films I say no to and they end up working very well, but I don't care, I just want to do something exciting.

What I am after, above all, is expression.

"Strong" to people means "real." It means you believe that's a person who exists, as opposed to some two-dimensional depiction of women.

You can continue your practice, you can exercise kindness, you can practice meditation whether you're in a prison or a millionaire's house, whether you're in India or Tibet.
