By making a comeback, I'm changing the attitude of people toward me. If I'd known that people would react so enthusiastically, I'd have done it years ago.

In my day, at 12 years old, which was 38 years ago, we worked out in summer months for two and a half hours. Today someone in that age group might work out for four hours, two hours in the morning and two at night.

Life is true to form; records are meant to be broken.

If you fail to prepare, you're prepared to fail.

Everyone loves to be loved.

My biggest loss was the Olympics. I just can't forget losing. I never will.
