Never give up; just absolutely never give up.

I'm fitter than I've ever been, I'm actually very, very healthy and I'm happy.

With Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara, it was better to be friends and make them smile rather than wind them up.

I can 100 percent tell you that I have not gone under the surgeon's knife or had a facelift.

You can't afford to live your life with regrets.

My life was falling apart and then to come out and play and have my best ever - 40 wickets, 250 runs... But the only reason I could do that was because of the way I thought and I think I'm pretty strong mentally. I think I am anyway, pretty strong to get over whatever it is.

It was bloody difficult getting followed around all the time.
