The only disability in life is having a bad attitude

To have been selected to represent Team South Africa at the London 2012 Olympic Games in the individual 400m and the 4x400m relay is a real honor and I am so pleased that years of hard work, determination and sacrifice have all come together.

Putting on my legs is like putting on my shoes. I understand that's how some people might think differently, but I hope that in London, their perceptions open up.

I don't want to be competing in a sport where I feel that I'm here not on my talent and my hard work but because of a piece of equipment.

I made the mistakes not because I'm tired.

If the legs did provide such an advantage that some of the people are claiming they did, then there would be a lot more amputees using the exact same prosthetic legs I have, running the exact same times I have - and that's not the case.

You don't call the witness a liar, not while he is in the witness box.
