I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies; for the hardest victory is over self.
The only certain happiness in life is to live for others.
"I prefer to remain in blissful ignorance of the opposition. That way I'm not frightened by anyone's reputation."
Most people run a race to see who is fastest. I run a race to see who has the most guts.
"You have to forget your last marathon before you try another. Your mind can't know what's coming."
"Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it."
"How does a kid from Coos Bay, with one leg longer than the other win races? All my life people have been telling me, 'You're too small Pre', 'You're not fast enough Pre', 'Give up your foolish dream Steve'. But they forgot something, I HAVE TO WIN."

"Anybody can do just about anything with himself that he really wants to and makes his mind to do. We are capable of greater than we realize."
"If you ever get a second chance in life for something, you've got to go all the way."
"Good things come slow - especially in distance running."
"Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or gazelle - when the sun comes up, you'd better be running."

Too much of a good thing can be wonderful.
Life is a series of moments. Each moment should be welcomed in joy and relinquished in joy.
