A Quote by Bill Bowerman

I still bother with runners I call hamburgers. They're never going to run any record times. But they can fulfill their own potential. — © Bill Bowerman
I still bother with runners I call hamburgers. They're never going to run any record times. But they can fulfill their own potential.
If I've learned one thing as a state leader, it's that California will never fulfill its truest potential if we wait for Washington to change on its own.
I may never be happy, but tonight I am content. Nothing more than an empty house, the warm hazy weariness from a day spent setting strawberry runners in the sun, a glass of cool sweet milk, and a shallow dish of blueberries bathed in cream. When one is so tired at the end of a day one must sleep, and at the next dawn there are more strawberry runners to set, and so one goes on living, near the earth. At times like this I'd call myself a fool to ask for more.
The realization that I'm never going to run again, the feeling through my hair when you run... you're still a kid. You still have so much life to live.
I don't really mind any scrutiny. It doesn't bother me. I'm going to still live my life and do everything I do the same way and not lose any sleep.
In my own professional career, I've tried to establish my own identity and my own track record so that if I were to entertain a run for office, there would be my own track record for voters to look at.
You have to start looking in the mirror and saying, 'this is who I am, this is what I am and this is how I'm going to be' and start demanding more from yourself. In spite of everything that this system has thrown at us, we still have to live at the end of the day. We still have to find purpose and find ways to prosper and make a profit so you have to find ways to stand on your own two feet and fulfill your potential as a black man or black woman on this planet no matter how marginalized or oppressed you may be.
One central need in life is to fulfill its own potential.
The greatest gift you can give to others is to fulfill YOUR potential, so that you can show them how to fulfill theirs.
I never thought anyone would come up to me and say, 'I like 'Better Call Saul' better than 'Breaking Bad.'' If you had asked me before we started, 'Would that bother you if someone said that?' First of all, I would have said, 'That's never gonna happen. And yeah, it probably would bother me.' It doesn't bother me a bit. It tickles me. I love it.
There are any number of things that survive great, and don't need any kind of consciousness, so why bother going through all the trouble of evolving monkeys that don't run very well or climb very fast or have particularly sharp teeth, but have big heads.
If you're going to play football, why not be the best at it that you can be and fulfill your potential?
If you do not train hard you will never fulfill your potential.
I never expected to do what I can, but with my coaching staff and my training and coming to terms with my own ability and my own talent and realizing the potential that there is, I've decided that I want to make a run for it. I'm training, and I'm fighting for a title.
I have always run as hard as I can. You are not going to run any harder with or without men. You are running on your own two feet.
Hillary Clinton cannot run away from her own record of incompetence or from the Obama record of abject betrayal.
I am encouraged President Obama now says he will fulfill his constitutional obligation to seek authorization for any potential military action in Syria. This is the most important decision any President or any Senator must make, and it deserves vigorous debate
