I really can’t tell you the feeling I feel, like, being on stage: it’s such a high; it’s like running a marathon. You just can’t get that feeling anywhere else. – Dierks Bentley
If you want to run, run a mile. If you want to experience a different life, run a marathon. – Emil Zatopek
The only thing I find difficult to watch – horror movies – not that I don’t like them. Like ‘The Shining,’ it’s one of my favorite movies, but it’s terrifying. I feel like I’ve watched a marathon afterwards. – Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of the two brothers who carried out the marathon bombing, was a non-practicing Muslim who only became an Islamist militant once his dreams of becoming an Olympic boxer faded. At the time of the attack, he was unemployed. – Peter L. Bergen
Nobody loves the Boston Marathon as much as the people who make fun of it year after year. This was the race that previously offered as a prize a not particularly expensive medal, a laurel wreath, and a bowl of beef stew. This was the race that, on one memorable occasion, nobody knew who actually won. – Charlie Pierce
I’ve had a lot of success over the years racing in New York, but the main point is that I feel the marathon is a different event, a lot more my event. – Paula Radcliffe
Two days after the Boston marathon bombings, there was a drone strike in Yemen attacking a peaceful village, which killed a target who could very easily have been apprehended. But, of course, it is just easier to terrorise people. The drones are a terrorist weapon; they not only kill targets but also terrorise other people. – Noam Chomsky
Our favorite: a former garbage dump converted into a riverside park. I first ran there more than 30 years ago when a marathon passed through this park that later became home to Pre’s Trail. – Joe Henderson
Running for office is similar to being a trial lawyer in a very long trial. It requires adrenaline and stamina; it requires being in shape mentally and emotionally. It’s a marathon. – Kamala Harris
For the most part, the only contact that most Quebecers have with the world of Islam is through these images of violence, repeated over and over: wars, riots, bombs, the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Boston marathon… The reaction is obvious: We’ll have none of that here! – Jacques Parizeau
I’ve started movies without screenplays both on ‘Clash’ and on ‘Hulk,’ and that is tremendously stressful because you have a tendency to overcompensate with effects. You haven’t tested it in your head. You didn’t run it over and over again and covered all of the plot holes and figure it out. It’s a marathon that you sprint. – Louis Leterrier
I don’t think you just can put people on the starting block and then wait… for the next Ebola-like epidemic. I think that you need somehow a small-capacity response who’s going to run the first few kilometers of the marathon. – Joanne Liu
The Federal appropriations process is a marathon, not a sprint, and we are at the beginning of that process. – Jim Walsh
I’ll be the first to admit it – after the first episode, I wasn’t sold on Peter Capaldi as the new Doctor of ‘Doctor Who,’ with the bewildered Clara following behind like a lost puppy, haphazardly flinging aggression around like cream pies in a ‘Three Stooges’ marathon. – Rob Manuel
I was formed by ‘The Forsyte Saga’ marathon. There was something about seeing all those events telescoped that was unbelievably moving: that sense of time as something that can be tinkered with. – Richard Greenberg
Business is a sprint until you find an opportunity, then it’s the patience of a marathon runner. – Robert Herjavec
I always do an all-night horror marathon on Saturdays where we start at seven and go until five in the morning. – Quentin Tarantino
I am a huge box sets fan and love a Sunday marathon session watching my favourite series back-to-back. – Rose Leslie
If you don’t ever stop singing, your voice stays in shape. It’s like the marathon runner. You’ve got to run, run, run to stay in shape. – Sammy Hagar
Have you seen a marathon race? Some runners will be leading right from the first – but after the halfway mark, it is the runners at the back who take over while the early leaders fade out. – Sharad Pawar
I enter myself in races. I did a triathlon, and I have done a marathon a couple of times. – Stephen Mangan
