You can't depend on other people, you have to run your own race.

I look at victory as milestones on a very long highway.

Winning is neither everything nor the only thing. It is one of many things.

One hour with a child is like a ten-mile run.

Recognize your victories.

There will always be something to strive for. My hope is for the heart to strive forever.

It's funny. I'm attracted to things that don't have any impact on life. People say I've done a great thing for women. I don't think I have. People say I've given people courage. That makes me feel good, but I don't see how I do that. I think my running is a selfish thing. But it provides the challenge that allows me to feel good about myself. How can I expect to do well in other activities if I don't feel good about myself?
