I never ran my train off the track, and I never lost a passenger.
Harriet Tubman

I once bought an old car back after I sold it because I missed it so much and I had forgotten that it never ran. It was a British racing car. You know, because I just wanted it back. I could only remember what was good about it.
Connie Chung

I opened the door for a lot of people, and they just ran through and left me holding the knob.

I pestered the hell out of everybody I ran into until I could play the guitar well enough to write and sing with it.
Don Johnson

I ran and ran and ran every day, and I acquired this sense of determination, this sense of spirit that I would never, never give up, no matter what else happened.

I ran around with the other youngsters, hunting, fishing and raising tadpoles and all the rest.

I ran for Congress, just once.

I ran into Ellen at a photo shoot. She took my breath away. That had never happened to me in my life.

I ran into Isosceles. He had a great idea for a new triangle!
Woody Allen

I ran into Ku Klux Klan and the threat of hurricanes, and those two things made me decide not to build on the Alabama coast, so we came back to Memphis.
Shelby Foote

I ran into Neal Patrick Harris recently. We were in something called The Purple People Eater. He was maybe 10, but he still remembered it as the worst experience of his life!

I ran into Snoop one night. I was in the studio later, and I got this beat and thought he would sound great on it. I called him and he came right through that night.
Angie Martinez

I ran my fastest marathon in the rain.

Mark Ruffalo

I ran track, and basically played every sport.
Leigh Steinberg

I respected it. I submerged myself into it. So on a lot of days off I would go and fish with the fishermen and the families that ran the boats. I would go work the fields with farmers. I would go and talk with farmers about growing particular products for me.
Emeril Lagasse

I started out mopping floors, waiting tables, and tending bar at my dad's tavern. I put myself through school working odd jobs and night shifts. I poured my heart and soul into a small business. And when I saw how out-of-touch Washington had become with the core values of this great nation, I put my name forward and ran for office.
John Boehner

I started writing short stories. I tried writing horror, mystery, science fiction. I joined a little critique group here in town and ran my stories past them. After about three years, I tackled my first novel, Subterranean. It took me 11 months to write.
