Aim above mortality. Be not simply good, be good for something.

Henry David Thoreau

Are we who we think we are or are we who others think we are or are we who we think others want us to be? So many people are not anybody because they're tied up keeping an eye on everyone else, hoping not to miss something important, not realizing until too late they missed out on life entirely.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of every day life.

I wanted to give up the idea I had any control. Shake things up. To be saved by chaos. To see if I could cope, I wanted to force myself to grow again. To explode my comfort zone.

So, what if, instead of thinking about solving your whole life, you just think about adding additional good things. One at a time. Just let your pile of good things grow.

Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.

Is the magnitude of a life’s work enough to outweigh the depersonalisation of the self?

I can't imagine ever not imagine waking up a little bit nervous. To have something to be nervous for- whether it's a film or a race- is the most wonderful thing, and I hope that when it's not the Olympics that I'm nervous for- when it's something else- that I have something to always be nervous for.

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

You have always been more than a runner, more than your times, more than your state championships, more than your school records. But you will get confused. You will forget. Luckily you will have teammates and family and friends who remind you. You will go on to do almost every single thing you could have dreamed of, not in the way you imagined, not on the timeline you imagined.
