What bothers most critics of my work is the goofiness. One reviewer said I need to make up my mind if want to be funny or serious.

#quotes #yann-arthus-bertrand #life #success

In running, it doesn't matter how fast or slow you are relative to anyone else. You set your own pace and you measure your own progress.
