- Joe Henderson
"You don’t run against a bloody stop watch, do you hear? A runner runs against himself, against the best that’s in him. Not against a dead thing of wheels and pulleys. That’s the way to be great, running against yourself. Against all the rotten mess in the world. Against God, if you’re good enough."
- Bill Persons

-Johnny Gray
"There are clubs you can't belong to, neighborhoods you can't live in, schools you can't get into, but the roads are always open."
-Nike
