I think the people who have really followed my career from the time I was seven years old can see my steady progress and see the type of person and athlete I am.

It's hard to have a bad hair day when you're famous.

I am against performance-enhancing drugs. I have never taken them and I never will take them.

When I'm home, I'm relaxed.

I recognize that by saying that I'm deeply sorry, it might not be enough and sufficient to address the pain and the hurt that I have caused you. Therefore, I want to ask for your forgiveness for my actions, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

I've set no world record.

I train so hard to make sure failure doesn't happen. If I do everything I can, and run as fast as I possibly can and someone still beats me, I don't think of that as failure.
