Famous quotes containing the word marathon:

    “The mountains look on Marathon—
    And Marathon looks on the sea;
    And musing there an hour alone,
    I dreamed that Greece might still be free;
    For standing on the Persians’ grave,
    I could not deem myself a slave.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “... marathon swimming is the most difficult physical, intellectual and emotional battleground I have encountered, and each time I win, each time I touch the other shore, I feel worthy of any other challenge life has to offer.”
    —Diana Nyad (b. 1949)

    “In their eyes I have seen
    the pin men of madness in marathon trim
    race round the track of the stadium pupil.”
    —Patricia K. Page (b. 1916)
