[A]ll of life, as we know it, moves in little, unavailing circles. More justly than to anything else, it can be likened to the game of baseball. Crack! we hit the ball, and away we go. If we earn a run (in life we call it success) we get back to the home plate and sit upon a bench. If we are thrown out, we walk back to the home plate -- and sit upon a bench.
O. Henry
Many of our leaders have gone past the old-fashioned politics of the democratic era and entered into the politics of fear.

There is scarcely a town or school in Russia from which boys have not run away to the war.

I can't believe that Babe Ruth was a better player than Willie Mays. Babe Ruth is to baseball what Arnold Palmer is to golf. He got the game moving. But I can't believe he could run as well as Willie Mays, and I can't believe he was any better an outfielder.
Sandy Koufax
I loved the feeling of freedom in running, the fresh air, the feeling that the only person I'm competing with is me.

I was pretty certain my dad was not up to no good, running for senator notwithstanding.
John Scalzi
I remember clearly the afternoon I sat down with Obama. In December 2006, he was preparing for a family trip, and the decision to run weighed heavily on his mind. As a progressive member of Congress from Illinois, I was excited and energized by the prospect of my senator, and my friend, running for president.
Luis Gutierrez

When one devotes oneself to meditation, mental burdens, unnecessary worries, and wandering thoughts drop off one by one; life seems to run smoothly and pleasantly.

I just follow my nose, and instead of letting someone run my affairs and probably make me wealthy within a matter of years, I've just kept the board of directors down to zero.

It's the opposite side of the coin from sinking back into the recliner and becoming somebody they bury.
Merle Haggard
Too much talking," I say. "Not enough running.
Patrick Ness

Carlos Lopez-Cantera
Opening day is always so cool to be a part of and to people watch. The Pacific Classic, which I've had the privilege of riding in a couple of times, is great. Every day at Del Mar is fantastic.
