“To an extreme athlete, there's a certain appeal to doing extreme thing...” — Dean Karnazes Quote

“To an extreme athlete, there's a certain appeal to doing extreme things - seeking the most extreme physical challenges in some of the most extreme climates in the world. Testing and expanding the limits of human endurance is kind of my thing.”

“Any goal worth achieving involves an element of risk.”

“I do a lot of marathons as training runs. If I'm somewhere and there's a marathon, I'll sign up and just go run it.”

“Being a visionary is a new profession, but it is really just a variant on fortunetelling, which may be the world's oldest. And its marketing appeal is similar - people will pay for reassurance about the unknown.”

“Stardom doesn't appeal to me in anyway. Of course, I want people to like my work, but in my mind I've consciously created a line where I don't think of myself as a big star.”

“I'm trying to write songs to appeal to everybody.”
