There's a new really dope oen in the new jump magazine.

"Logic will take you from point A to B, but creativity in this discipline will take you where ever you want to go".

Also there's a dope one by David belle where he goes into something like a prologue about parkour and just movement in general I opened up a PK speach for my class with a couple years ago. I'll see if I can remember it.

"If you see someone that looks like they're running from the police, but there is no one in pursuit, it's probably parkour"

"Parkour: We Turned Running From the Cops Into A Sport."
--Angel M. Castillo

"I don't do it to show off, I mean, I do it... maybe to wake someone up, or, to to, y'know, for them to ask the question "Why are you doing this?" and then that, gives me then the opportunity to speak to them and tell them the reason why I do this.

One of my aims is to help people to realize that, y'know, that, parkour is a tool that is so powerful, that it can change so many peoples live, really so... yeah."
--Danny Ilabaca

"I'm not special.  Anybody can do this."
--Chase Armitage

"After you make the jump, you're in a state....there is a sense of accomplishment.  You succeeded in everything you planned. You can see it on my face."
--Sebastien Foucan

"Freerunning poses the question: do we allow the city to trap us, or liberate us?"
--Jump London
