Usain Bolt

I like to have fun, just stay relaxed.

I remember once, actually the first race I ran, I fell.

I really want to try soccer after I retire because I've watched football over the years and I think I could be a good contender.

I just love dancing.

I don't even like to go out onto the streets sometimes because I can't get anything done. People want pictures and autographs all the time.

You have good days and bad days.

It's a great feat for me to have broken my world record.

I don't put myself under pressure.

I don't think about records.

Come on... when you're running, if you see you're going to win, you're going to celebrate.

I really don't have a favorite meal. I eat anything.

I try to lead by example.

I will run against anybody.

I have matured a lot.

I wouldn't say I'm a phenomenon, just a great athlete.

I don't know the history of my sport. I'm not like those people who know everything.

Yeah, I am lazy. There's no doubt about that.

There are things that bother me. I try not to let them, but they do.

My brother is really, really slow.

In track years... track is not like other sports. You do have track athletes that stay in this sport until, like, 35, 36, but I think when you get to 28, it's really difficult.

For some reason, when I get to the 200m, I'm always a little bit nervous.

The 100m is never stressful.

I think they have not learned over the years that the more you talk, the more I will want to beat you.

I can't watch a Mayweather fight. I don't find it exciting.

When I was younger, I always wanted to impress, to be good for my country, to make them feel good, and sometimes that meant I didn't focus on myself enough. I learned I had to put myself first. And it's fine because I want for me the same thing that they want for me, which is to win.

I definitely know I'm going to be working a lot more with my foundation when it comes to developing the kids in Jamaica.

My coach keeps telling me to say I'm not going to retire. I should just go through the motions and see what I feel every year and see if I really want to do it, but personally, I want to do it, but my coach says just take your time, don't rush.

The three-peat has never been attempted, ever, and for me, I think it will add to my legendary status. I want to become one of the greatest athletes ever to have competed in any sport, so for me, that's what it means.

I like music a lot.

I've tried my hardest to bribe my chef, but my team have been clever and hired someone who not only is not bribeable but who chases me round the house and makes sure I eat what he's cooked, and he lays out my vitamin pills and supplements in front of me so I can't 'forget' to take them.

My coach is pushing me harder than ever to make sure I stay at a good level.

I would rather be lying in a bed than changing one.

Once a year I will clean my room, just because I feel I should.

Every season, for me, it's like starting from scratch again.

My relationship with everyone in Jamaica is good.

I think my acceleration is very good. That's the key for me.

I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.

My name is Bolt, Lightning Bolt.

If I get to be a legend, I've achieved my goal.

I don't read a lot of books.

Repeating is harder than anything else.

You can get beat any day.

If Queen Elizabeth knighthooded me and I would get the title Sir Usain Bolt. That sounds very nice.

Sometimes you lose sight of what's going on around you.

It's always a wake-up call to get beaten.

My hunger is always there.

I know what to do and I go and execute.

When people see your personality come out, they feel so good, like they actually know who you are.

I work hard, and I do good, and I'm going to enjoy myself. I'm not going to let you restrict me.

For me, I'm focused on what I want to do. I know what I need to do to be a champion, so I'm working on it.
