In the end, the American dream is not a sprint, or even a marathon, but a relay. Our families don't always cross the finish line in the span of one generation. But each generation passes on to the next the fruits of their labor. ↗

The success of the Rat Pack or the Clan was due to the camaraderie, the three guys who work together and kid each other and love each other. ↗

This good fellowship - camaraderie - usually occurring through the similarity of pursuits is unfortunately seldom super-added to love between the sexes, because men and women associate, not in their labors but in their pleasures merely. Where, however, happy circumstances permit its development, the compounded feeling proves itself to be the only love which is strong as death - that love which many waters cannot quench, nor the floods drown, besides which the passion usually called by the name is as evanescent as steam. ↗

I used to run a full marathon in three hours and 25 or 26 minutes. Not any more. ↗

I've been running a full marathon every year for more than 20 years, and my record is getting worse. Getting older, getting worse. It's natural. ↗

I've run the Boston Marathon 6 times before. I think the best aspects of the marathon are the beautiful changes of the scenery along the route and the warmth of the people's support. I feel happier every time I enter this marathon. ↗
