My favourite event was the 200m, so as I won the 100m, I thought it was possible I'd win the 200m.

I always felt free when I ran. I suppose that's what was good about it.

I don't concentrate on things I can't do. I do what I can do.

The integral part of being a star is having the will to win. All the champions have it.

I realized from a very early age that God gave me a gift, and that gift was to run, and I wanted to use it to the best of my ability.

My salvation was a free gift. I didn't have to work for it and it's better than any gold medal that I've ever won.

No way did I ever think I was going to win the 100m.
