I'm very serious about becoming a dramatic actor. I don't want to play cameo parts walking on as Carl Lewis the athlete. I want to go on stage or screen and be taken seriously.

The people are fed up with their elected officials playing the blame game and treating their political counterparts as enemies.

Amateurism is the strongest form of discrimination in sports. Because it discriminates against the underprivileged, it discriminates against the poor. If we want sports to go back to the wealthy, let's make it amateur again.

I don't feel I'm qualified to be a coach outside the high school level. I think I would need to do more education to really be a good coach.

People have always thought of me as being something, but I'm just a human being like everyone else.

I'm not a coach and I know it. I'm too busy and it doesn't pay. I'm expensive. But I would always advise.

I know there are a lot of people out there who have the best intentions but not the voice, so it's about people like me to give them a voice and hear their ideas.
