“So little by little I climb towards life, in the straitjacket of my prison. I don't waste an ounce of air or sun. I explore I bring to light.”
“I run because if I didn’t, I’d be sluggish and glum and spend too much time on the couch. I run to breathe the fresh air. I run to explore. I run to escape the ordinary. I run…to savor the trip along the way. Life becomes a little more vibrant, a little more intense. I like that.”
“I have spent my entire life climbing toward your name.”
“I don't mind walking. I always feel so sorry for women who don't like to walk; they miss so much--so many rare little glimpses of life; and we women learn so little of life on the whole.”
“Little kids shoot marbleswhere the branches break the sun into graceful shafts of light…I just want to be pure.”
“I work so much, I miss the sun shine away. I sleep so little, Watch the stars fade into day.”
