More quotes by Zola Budd
I no longer run barefoot.
Zola Budd
Coming from a farming background, I saw nothing out of the ordinary in running barefoot, although it seemed to startle the rest of the athletics world. I have always enjoyed going barefoot and when I was growing up I seldom wore shoes, even when I went into town.
Zola Budd
Looking back... it's hard to understand what all the fuss was about as things changed in just a few years. When you look at all the things that have happened in the world, it seems very small.
Zola Budd
I can drink tea until the cows come home and I love the atmosphere in tea-shops.
Zola Budd
I have strong views about South African politics and I still don't feel I need to make public statements.
Zola Budd
Tea-shops were to become my favourite haunts in England.
Zola Budd
There were always a couple of loonies who caused all the trouble.
Zola Budd
She hasn't run faster than herself before
Zola Budd
I think it's one of the most natural things for any human to do is to be able to run because it's that flight or fight reaction you have. You either fight or you run away. It's just a natural way for us to move.
Zola Budd
When you sit in America you miss the open plains and you miss the sound of rain and the smell of rain and the smell of the veld. If you're African it's different and I don't think one will ever become an American or British. It doesn't matter where you move, you will always be a South African.
