"Running, one might say is basically an absurd pastime upon which to be exhausting ourselves. But if you can find meaning in the kind of running you have to do to stay on this team, chances are you can find meaning in another absurd pastime: Life."

—Bill Bowerman (Donald Sutherland),
Without Limits (writers Robert Towne and Kenny Moore)


"WHATEVER. He's out there sellin' car insurance; I'm out there to win. I didn't say I wouldn't go fishin' with the man. All I'm sayin' is... he comes near me, I'll put him in the wall."
