“Jedan trkač je govorio o magijskoj izreci kojoj ga je njegov stariji brat, također trkač, naučio i koja ga prožima još otkad se počeo baviti trčanjem. Evo te mantre: Bol je neminovna. Patnja je stvar izbora. Recimo da trčite i počnete razmišljati: "Ovo me baš boli, ne mogu dulje izdržati." Ta vrsta boli neizbježan je dio stvarnosti, ali o tome može li dulje izdržati ili ne, odluku donosi jedino trkač.”

“But anyhow it's over. But I am not as happy as I thought I'd be because when something you have dreaded comes to an end there's a sense of anticlimax, like dust in the mouth. All the crashing ruin, the falling and tumbling, are over, but the dust is horrible. They say it won't happen to me again but I expect they only say it to comfort me. But I must think it won't. I must be like the people who plant gardens and build houses all over again where the earthquake has been. At the back of their minds they know there may be another 'quake but with the front of their minds they plant gardens.”
