Brendan Leonard
“If you want to run and you have a nagging injury or pain, you essentially become an addict who has a problem that is obviously caused by the thing they’re addicted to, and will search tirelessly for a solution, any solution, that will make their problem go away—except quitting the thing they’re addicted to. Or maybe that’s just me.”
Brendan Leonard, Ultra-Something

Adam Hamilton
“Suffering is not God’s desire for us, but it occurs in the process of life. Suffering is not given to teach us something, but through it we may learn. Suffering is not given to teach others something, but through it they may learn. Suffering is not given to punish us, but sometimes it is the consequence of our sin or poor judgment. Suffering does not occur because our faith is weak, but through it our faith may be strengthened. God does not depend on human suffering to achieve his purposes, but sometimes through suffering his purposes are achieved. Suffering can either destroy us, or it can add meaning to our life.3”
Adam Hamilton, Making Sense of the Bible: Rediscovering the Power of Scripture Today

Louise Penny
“We will feel him in the rain, in the wind, in the bite of snow, in the scent of autumn leaves, and in deep and penetrating silence. We might miss him terribly but will never be away from him. Yves returns to joy. As we all will, one day.”
Louise Penny, The Grey Wolf

Hunter S. Thompson
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967
