• "A race is a work of art that people can look at and be affected in as many ways they're capable of understanding.“
• "To give anything less than your best, is to sacrifice the gift.“
• "Some people create with words or with music or with a brush and paints. I like to make something beautiful when I run. I like to make people stop and say, 'I've never seen anyone run like that before.' It's more than just a race, it's a style. It's doing something better than anyone else. It's being creative.“
• "I'm going to work so that it's a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it.“
• "A race is a work of art that people can look at and be affected in as many ways they're capable of understanding.“
