Pat Conroy Quotes
But, As I Watch This Film, I Often Think That The Boy Did Not Know What He Was Really Running Toward, That It Was Not The End Zone Which Awaited Him. Somewhere In That Ten Second Dash The Running Boy Turned To Metaphor And The Older Man Could See It Where The Boy Couldn Not. He Would Be Good At Running, Always Good At It, And He Would Always Run Away From The Things That Hurt Him, From The People Who Loved Him, And From The Friends Empowered To Save Him. But Where Do We Run When There Are No Crowds, No Lights, No End Zones? Where Does A Man Run? The Coach Said, Studying The Films Of Himself As A Boy. Where Can A Man Run When He Has Lost The Excuse Of Games? Where Can A Man Run Or Where Can He Hide When He Looks Behind Him And Sees That He Is Only Pursued By Himself?
