Jesse Owens Quotes

A lifetime of training for just ten seconds.
Jesse Owens

Jesse Owens

Jesse Owens

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

Jesse Owens

One chance is all you need.
Jesse Owens

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.
