Always make a total effort, even when the odds are against you.

Spirit ... has fifty times the strength and staying power of brawn and muscle.

You might not be able to outthink, out-market or outspend your competition, but you can outwork them

Just remember this: No one ever won the olive wreath with an impressive training diary.

The more I talk to athletes, the more convinced I become that the method of training is relatively unimportant. There are many ways to the top, and the training method you choose is just the one that suits you best. No, the important thing is the attitude of the athlete, the desire to get to the top.

Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.
