Translated from Le Petit Prince (which we read in high school) …

"Here is my secret. It is very simple: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

It sounds prettier in French.

Recently I heard my new fave song lyric on a Snow Patrol CD:
"More than anything I want to see you girl, take a glorious bite out of the whole world." Love it!! Quotes are so much fun :O).

I know you are beating yourself up about your run based on your abilities but man, what I would give to run my half marathon in that time. I had another 20 minutes on top of that.

I just read your post about struggling through 13 miles this weekend, and I wanted to tell you I am also training for Disney World and had a very similar struggle this week!! 12 miles seemed harder than a whole marathon and my legs felt like they were moving through molasses–plus i felt super naush!!! Congrats on pushing through it–i know how you feel!! Your post reminded me that having bad long runs (or any runs) are just a normal part of training, and sometimes those are the ones that, in the long run, are most beneficial to your training, b/c you're training yourself to push through mentally when everything isn't perfect. This will end up being HUGELY beneficial on race day. Thanks for reminding me that we all have bad running days!! (and yay for having ours on the smae weekend!)

My favourite quote is "Nothing worth having is easy to get". I tell my daughter this all the time when she complains that things are hard.

Favorite Quote and I have had it hanging on the wall in my office since 2002 "The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances the want, and, if the can't find them, make them." It's up to us to figure out how to get where we want to be. Love it.

I marked in my day-planner to post some inspirational quotes on International Day of Peace (today), so when I opened your post this morning I started grinning!

I love my list, but you have some great ones on here too!
