Born to Run by Christopher McDougall

Born to Run
By Christopher McDougall

Pg. 28: asking direct questions is a show of force, a demand for possession inside their head
Pg. 29: In the Tarahumara tongue, humans came in only two forms: there are Raramuri, who run from trouble, and chabochis, who cause it. {or those that don't know there's trouble}
Pg. 144: Living on the edge wasn’t about danger, he released. It was about curiosity; audacious curiosity
Pg. 154: What fascinated chase wasn’t action, but anticipation; not the ballerina’s leap, but the instant before takeoff when her strength is coiled and anything is possible.
Pg. 177: The barefoot walker receives a continuous stream of information about the ground and about his relationship to it
