Does any one happen to know of any good pole vaulting quotes or quotes from famous vaulters?

I'll altered my pole vaulting safety campaign into a book on vaulting aimed at a basic overview of the sport for novice vaulters, and I am planning on including quotes throughout the book.

Any suggestions?

I would suggest doing a search for "pole vault quotes" ...I seem to remember a few past threads on this. If that doesn't turn anything up...try searching "quotes". I would do it for ya, but I'm kinda busy right now. :o

ok, here are my favorite ones!!

    can i plant my pole in your box
    why run when you can fly
    stroke it to vertical
    Pole vault: a sport where the size of your pole matters and penetration is the key
    Get high? I get high!
    Warning: High Vaultage
    The stiffer the pole the better the ride!
    If you shoot up, you'll get high
    Any girl can dance on a pole, but i fly on mine!
    You just gotta be a big bad a** ninja! (haha i love that one!!)
    Rise to the occasion
    If we weren't all crazy, we would go insane
    Use that pole and VAULT yourself over!
    Look you either join the team and got to practice or do drugs--that's just how it is, it's track or crack!
