Running Born To Run Born

More From Christopher McDougall

You were born with potential. you were born with goodness and trust. you were born with ideals and dreams. you were born with greatness. you were born with wings. you are not meant for crawling, so don't. you have wings. learn to use them and fly.
Trust Dream Encouragement
When you're walking home at night, do you even get creeped out and even though it's silly and embarrassing you just want to run home?" it seemed too secret and personal to admit to virtual stranger, but i told her, "yeah, totally." for a moment, she was quiet. then she grabbed my hand, whispered, "run run run run run," and took off, pulling me behind her.
Running Real Silly
Distance running was revered because it was indispensable; it was the way we survived and thrived and spread across the planet. you ran to eat and to avoid being eaten; you ran to find a mate and impress her, and with her you ran off to start a new life together. you had to love running, or you wouldn't live to love anything else. and like everything else we love-everything we sentimentally call our 'passions' and 'desires'-it's really an encoded ancestral necessity. we were born to run; we were born because we run.
Running Distance Passion
I run because if i didn’t, i’d be sluggish and glum and spend too much time on the couch. i run to breathe the fresh air. i run to explore. i run to escape the ordinary. i run…to savor the trip along the way. life becomes a little more vibrant, a little more intense. i like that.
Running Health Air
I was born in the u.s., my wife was born in mexico and emigrated here when she was in college, and my daughters were born in new york city. that makes them passport-carrying, natural-born, eligible-to-run-for-president americans. but they're also mexicans and they like that just fine.
Mother Running Daughter
We are born, so to speak, twice over; born into existence, and born into life; born a human being, and born a man.

The man in black smiled. "shall we tell the truth then, you and i? no more lies?" i thought we had been." but the man in black persisted as if roland hadn't spoken. "shall there be truth between us, as two men? not as friends, but as equals? there is an offer you will get rarely, roland. only equals speak the truth, that's my thought on't. friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of regard. how tiresome!

The government has granted itself power it is not entitled to. there is no public oversight. the result is people like myself have the latitude to go further than they are allowed to.
Government People Granted
