Quotes about running
running encouragement thinking

Maybe a hundred years ago our people should have run away from this place, I said... And then run from the next place and the next place and the place after that?

We sleep all day, we play music at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington Journal.

running mistake wine
The spirit in the body is like wine in a glass; when it spills, it seeps into air and earth and light….It’s a mistake to think it’s the small things we control and not the large, it’s the other way around! We can’t stop the small accident, the tiny detail that conspires into fate: the extra moment you run back for something forgotten, a moment that saves you from an accident – or causes one. But we can assert the largest order, the large human values daily, the only order large enough to see. Anne Michaels

And when you finally do find out what one corner of your vision is; you're off and running. Anne Lamott
