"Cassidy early on understood that a true runner ran even when he didn't feel like it, 
and raced when he was supposed to, without excuses and with nothing held back. He ran 
to win , would die in the process if necessary, and was unimpressed by those who 
disavowed such a base motivation. You are not allowed to renounce that you have never 
possessed, he thought." (Quenton Cassidy - 'Once a Runner')
