Quote by Roger Bannister
I lived on the top of one hill and the school was at the top of another hill. Nobody ever went to school by car - we didn't have any cars during the war. So that to and from school was itself a training.
Summary
This quote highlights a personal experience during a time of hardship, potentially during a war. The individual lived on one hill and attended school on another, indicating geographical challenges. The absence of cars due to the wartime restrictions led to having to traverse the hills daily by foot, which provided an unintended physical training. This passage conveys resilience and adaptability in the face of difficult circumstances.
