A runner must run with dreams in his heart, not money in his pocket.
Emil Zatopek
An athlete cannot run with money in his pockets. He must run with hope in his heart and dreams in his head.

Great is the victory, but the friendship of all is greater.
Emil Zatopek
If one can stick to the training throughout the many long years, then will power is no longer a problem. It's raining? That doesn't matter. I am tired? That's besides the point. It's simply that I just have to.

If you want to run, run a mile. If you want to experience a different life, run a marathon.
Emil Zatopek
It's at the borders of pain and suffering that the men are separated from the boys.
Emil Zatopek
Men, today we die a little.
Emil Zatopek
My running was very simple; it was out of myself.
Emil Zatopek
The athlete of today is not an athlete alone. He's the center of a team - doctors, scientists, coaches, agents and so on.
Emil Zatopek
There is a great advantage in training under unfavorable conditions. It is better to train under bad conditions, for the difference is then a tremendous relief in a race.
Emil Zatopek
To boast of a performance which I cannot beat is merely stupid vanity. And if I can beat it that means there is nothing special about it. What has passed is already finished with. What I find more interesting is what is still to come.
Emil Zatopek
We are different, in essence, from other men. If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon.
Emil Zatopek
What has passed is already finished with. What I find more interesting is what is still to come.
Emil Zatopek
When I was young, I was too slow. I thought I must learn to run fast by practicing to run fast, so I ran 100 meters fast 20 times. Then I came back, slow, slow, slow.
Emil Zatopek
Why should I practice running slow? I already know how to run slow. I want to learn to run fast.
Emil Zatopek
You can't climb up to the second floor without a ladder. When you set your aim too high and don't fulfill it, then your enthusiasm turns to bitterness. Try for a goal that's reasonable, and then gradually raise it.

Christopher McDougall was one of those writers who stayed on the NY Times bestseller list last year for quite some time. The book was Born to Run. Here is a link to his blog and website. You might like to browse through it for academic interest.
