African quote that carried me through life

This is the quote I pretty much grew up with (Carpe Diem was another one my mom often used...:)) and maybe it is because of this quote (and the movie Out of Africa) that I carry so much love and excitement for this country!  

“Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle... when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.”

    :)))))))))) Moram priznati da sam ja vise za onaj citat u zagradi - Carpe Diem. Nekako, nikada nisam uzivao u trcanju (osim dok sam igrao tenis, ali to je drugacije). :))) Vec sam ti to rekao, ali bas si inspiracija i nepresusni izvor energije!!! Uzivaj i pisi. (Nisam pogledao blog tri dana, kad ono, gomila postova :)); ne smem da zabusavam :))) )
