Sports Quotes To Motivate, Amuse And Provoke
Sports Quotes on PerformanceI thought I might get somewhere near the European record of 1:43.70, and I had no particular sensation of speed, and I think I could have run even faster. I wasn’t exhausted at all in the end.Sebastian Coe in Oslo 1979 after knocking 1.1 seconds off the world record, it stood for 16 years! I was magnificent, it was so simple, easy, I was just jogging. I understood Einstein’s theory of relativity as time seemed to stand still. I could see everything before I did it. I felt so powerful, so in tune, in balance. It was a perfect melody, a rhythm, I was really flowing. I was dangerous that day. I was so surprised. Then again, I was so relaxed in the water, it felt amazing. People ask me ..what was going through your mind in the race?.. and I don't know. I try and ...let my body do what it knows. I couldn’t have felt better coming into this match and I couldn’t have played much worse. I am staggered, it was appalling. Insanity is doing the same thing you've always done and expecting different results. Sports Quotes on AttitudeThe greatest efforts in sports came when the mind is as still as a glass lake.Timothy Gallwey Much of what is "accepted" is just plain wrong and many with advanced degrees have merely studied that which is wrong in greater depth.
A mind that is stretched to a new idea never returns to its original dimensions.
An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field.
The hardest thing to attend to is that which is closest to ourselves, that which is most constant and familiar …and the closest ‘something’ is, precisely, ourselves, our own habits and ways of doing things.
Effort within the mind further limits the mind, because effort implies struggle towards a goal and when you have a goal, a purpose, an end in view, you have placed a limit on the mind. Mind is everything: muscle-pieces of rubber. All that I am, I am because of my mind. Minds are like parachutes, they only work when they are open. You never fail, you simply produce results. Learn from these. I have not failed 10,000 times. I have successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work. Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal, nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong attitude. "DO or DO NOT. There is no 'Try'. Sports Quotes on ExerciseIf we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health.Hippocrates Movements which do not alter respiration are not called exercise. I believe that the Good Lord gave us a finite number of heartbeats and I'm damned if I'm going to use up mine running up and down a street. Keep your mind open: keep your body and movements as free as possible. An open mind is not one that is easily filled with every bit of nonsense that is current. It is one that has not fixed on concrete ideas about anything, a mind that reflects, seeks, and basically, yearns for knowledge, improvement, success, and in the case of the last lets nothing stand in the way of achievement, leaves no stone unturned, no experiment untried. Percy Cerutty, pioneering running coach
Entertaining Sports QuotesIf everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.Mario Andretti Show me a man who is a good loser and I'll show you a man who is playing golf with his boss. If you are not the lead dog the view never changes! It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired - you quit when the gorilla is tired. To me, boxing is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography and the dancers hit each other. Baseball is ninety percent mental. The other half is physical.
