 | Post you favorite PK quotes. "When a child is born they know nothing. They are bound by nothing and anything is possible. As they grow they learn to accept laws, rules and restrictions imposed by man and nature. As a persons eyes close to possibilities. Objects and movements have only one purpose. What is this purpose? Ask yourself what? To move is to move, corectness does not exist. Many are restricted by hardline beliefs. Diffrence is not wrong as you are the diffrence and you are not wrong. Are You?" -PKH2O "PK for life everybody yell we love it!" -Kerbie "Gotta have flow, gotta have flow, gotta have flow." -Noah (well I guess you had to be there) My Parkour Blog | ||

 | "Life is movement. Once you stop moving, you're dead. Choose life." - Eugen Sandow not from a traceur but i think it applies [ Edited Thu Sep 22 2005, 09:24PM ] | ||

 | " The way is the path of silence. Cut across town quietly at your own speed. Concentrate on footwork, Your Touch, Your own sensibility. Look for cat-like silence and you will find the path... This is the way" -Sebastien Foucan -SwX | ||

 | If we keep this up for a while and have a ton of good quotes, I could do a "quote of the day" kinda thing. Unfortunately I don't have any good PK quotes though... | ||

| | This quote aint from a traceur, but I thought it could somewhat apply to parkour and not always traveling the 'safe' way. "He must seek his life in a spirit of furious indifference to it: he must desire life like water and yet drink death like wine." - G.K. Chesterton | ||

| | "At the physical end, Parkour is getting over all the obstacles in your path as you would in an emergency situation. You want to move in such a way, with any movement, that will help you gain the most ground on someone/something as if escaping from someone/something or chasing toward someone/something." David Belle Not very poetic, but whatever... it's pk | ||

| | Only those who risk going too far can possibly know how far one can go. T.S. Eliot Not PK directly but... it applies very well. My Parkour Blog | ||

| | "Remind Yourself that you're fulfilling your obligation to get the best from yourself, and that all achievement is born out of sacrifice." "It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." "Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear." Not all PK but you get the idea. [ Edited Aug 23 07, 09:24PM ] | ||

| | "A crazy person is only crazy because he does what no one else will" "The fundamental idea is a man who runs, and whom nothing stops." - David Belle "Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." | ||

| | hmm iwould have to say redspider's sig. or "Without passion, effort is meaningless." Traceurs should just be like drug dealers -- keep changing the name of the product to confuse the authorities. So this week it'll be like "Parkour? what's that? Got that ThatFlow, though!" And next week it'll be "A2B! A2B! Get that sh!t right here!" | ||
