Jesse Owens quotes
" A lifetime of training for just ten seconds. "

Jesse Owens
" Awards become corroded, friends gather no dust. "

Jesse Owens
" Find the good. It's all around you. Find it, showcase it and you'll start believing in it. "

Jesse Owens
" For a time, at least, I was the most famous person in the entire world. "

Jesse Owens
" Friendships born on the field of athletic strife are the real gold of competition. Awards become corroded, friends gather no dust. "

Jesse Owens
" I always loved running - it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs. "

Jesse Owens
" If you don't try to win you might as well hold the Olympics in somebody's back yard. The thrill of competing carries with it the thrill of a gold medal. One wants to win to prove himself the best. "

Jesse Owens
" One chance is all you need. "

Jesse Owens
" People come out to see you perform and you've got to give them the best you have within you. The lives of most men are patchwork quilts. Or at best one matching outfit with a closet and laundry bag full of incongruous accumulations. A lifetime of training for just ten seconds. "

Jesse Owens
" We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort. "
