1 Quotes by Jeff Bercovici

I love to marvel at the abilities of elite athletes and, like most nonelites, I envy what they can do. But they should envy us too. Greatness is a burden, and there's a profound freedom in knowing you'll never have it. There's nothing like trying something new and sucking at it, then sucking a little less every day you keep at it. Until science makes it possible to get younger, getting fitter, faster, and better at what you love will remain the closest thing most of us have.
