A failure isn't a failure if it prepares you for success tomorrow.

Greatness finds us by obstacles in front of us. I don’t look at hurdles as obstacles blocking my path but opportunities to overcome.

I never have prayed to win a gold medal at Olympics and never will. The Lord is my Shepard and I shall not want. May His will be done.

Stepping on that line for me, it will be about facing my fears.

There's always a point where you get knocked down. But I draw on what I've learned on the track: If you work hard, things will work out.

As a young girl, I just wanted to have fun and compete. There were no goals of becoming an Olympic athlete. I wanted to hang out with my friends. I wanted to do something fun, and that's what I did

Harder than training for the Olympics, harder than graduating from college, has been to stay a virgin before marriage.
