All I do is keep on running in my own cozy, homemade void, my own nostalgic silence. And this is a pretty wonderful thing. No matter what anybody else says.
When I'm running I don't have to talk to anybody and don't have to listen to anybody. This is a part of my day I can't do without.
You don’t stop running because you get old, you get old because you stop running.
The reason we race isn’t so much to beat each other, but to be with each other.
If you don’t have answers to your problems after a four-hour run, you ain’t getting them.
If you are losing faith in human nature, go out and watch a marathon.
Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it.
If you don’t think you were born to run you’re not only denying history. You’re denying who you are.
A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.
Somebody may beat me, but they are going to have to bleed to do it.
Sometimes you just do things!
Ask nothing from your running, and you’ll get more than you ever imagined.
