I always wanted to be wealthy. I did.

After I left the podium in Atlanta, I felt so fulfilled in my career that I lost my desire to compete at that level again.

I never competed against athletes. I competed against perfection.

Some Americans just shouldnt leave the country.

I've found that a person does not need protein from meat to be a successful athlete. In fact, my best year of track competition was the first year I ate a vegan diet.

Track and field is the best way to reach out for kids. It doesn't matter how fast you are. You always want to beat someone.

I'm a fast learner. I may not run as fast as I used to, but I think I still learn as fast.
