“The soul yearns to fly home on the wings of love to the world of ideas. It longs to be freed from the chains of the body.”
“For me, running is both exercise and a metaphor. Running day after day, piling up the races, bit by bit I raise the bar, and by clearing each level I elevate myself. At least thatâ€™s why Iâ€™ve put in the effort day after day: to raise my own level. Iâ€™m no great runner, by any means. Iâ€™m at an ordinary â€“ or perhaps more like mediocre â€“ level. But thatâ€™s not the point. The point is whether or not I improved over yesterday. In long-distance running the only opponent you have to beat is yourself, the way you used to be.”
“The philosopher, who with calm suspicion examines the dreams and omens, the miracles and prodigies, of profane or even of ecclesiastical history, will probably conclude that, if the eyes of the spectators have sometimes been deceived by fraud, the understanding of the readers has much more frequently been insulted by fiction.”
“The subconscious is motivated by emotion, not reason.”
“For me there ain't no high heel high enough.”
“I'm not a professional comedian. Nobody comes to my comedy shows. That's just a little hobby.”
“I'm very picky, and I'm never 100% happy with the work I do; I hate watching myself and hearing my voice.”
