Always educate yourself.

Every kid needs a mentor. Everybody needs a mentor.

I want to give as many Canadians the opportunity to be successful and if we can use their athletic gifts to get them a free degree or a free diploma across the border then I guess I'm doing my job.

Always educate yourself.

I think that every single person should play sports.

I'm a competitor.

A team sport is not very good for me, because I can't take losing.

Follow your passion, be prepared to work hard and sacrifice, and, above all, don't let anyone limit your dreams.

I do a lot of media work, I've been investing and I'm involved with real estate. It's totally different from what I had been doing but I find it challenging and fun. To be honest, I really don't miss the track. I pretty well accomplished what I set out to do and it was time to move on.

I love music, and a lot of it. Jazz is probably on the top with guys like Miles Davis. But I even enjoy music from the '60s and '70s.

I was working in corporate Canada and I was doing all right. But I was burnt out... Long hours, a lot of clients. I just wanted to get away. Track and field was sort of like the elimination thing. I just wanted to go and do something. Exercise my brain and my body and kind of gravitate to that.

I'd like to be a more consistent starter. I'd like a smoother transition from crouching to running. I have to learn to relax during a race and how to breathe.

I'll have to say winning the Olympic gold in Atlanta is a crowning achievement, along with the gold in the relay in the same games.

I'm Jamaican, man. I'm Jamaican first. You gotta understand that's where I'm from. That's home. That you can never take away from me. I'm a Jamaican-born Canadian sprinter.

In running, I can internalize that intensity. I can handle it because it's me and I'm coming back in the next race. I'm always ready for the next race.

You find sprinters testing other sprinters' mental capability. But these are my good friends on the track. I don't think we need to do that.

Follow your passion be prepared to work hard and sacrifice and above all dont let anyone limit your dreams.

The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos both his own and the enemies.

There are many who are not guilty of doing anything wrong but very guilty of sins of omission - the things they neglect to do - the good things - the kind, thoughtful words, compassionate thoughts and hopeful attitudes they might have had towards their neighbor.

When the new ownership came in, they made some decisions I wasn't pleased with. And when they changed the whole aspect of it, I just totally lost interest.

You can talk to a fade but a hook won't listen.

You are responsible for your life. You can't keep blaming somebody else for your dysfunction. Life is really about moving on.

There are those who leave without our needing to detain them; we have said all there is to say.

I don't want to be all worthy about it, but I don't do red carpets, I don't do events and I don't accept freebies that much.

I hate those men who would send into war youth to fight and die for them; the pride and cowardice of those old men, making their wars that boys must die.

The stance I took was there is no room for racial bias anywhere in sports. I believe that was basically all I said about it. Certainly I was cast as an abolitionist. Death threats came. Hate mail came.

Regaining the Champions Cup is not going to be easy.

From the political angle, I'm trying to be apolitical if you will. I mean people say, 'Are you a red state or blue state?', I say, 'I'm purple.' I think there are great ideas on both sides of the aisle and neither side has cornered the market.

I think we could all do better sometimes of not overextending ourselves as much.

People would say I really loved Buck Rogers until the Hawk guy came on.

Transactive memory works best when you have a sense of how your partners' minds work - where they're strong, where they're weak, where their biases lie. I can judge that for people close to me. But it's harder with digital tools, particularly search engines.

New York is a great place to be fed in the arts. The arts in general are a large part of my life. The city was my postgraduate course.

It didn't happen every time for every movie. Ruthless People was a good movie, but we didn't get a good release or marketing. They completely blew the opening.

Draw not your bow till your arrow is fixed.

I'm bad at rationalisation - very bad.

I feel like contemporary art is everywhere now and with the rise of the internet, it's so much easier to see what artists are doing and to follow their careers.

For me, Bloodshot was the least appealing character that Valiant had. He was so cold.

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

Death showed up in my life very early on, so I'm aware of it. If you look at most of the things I write there's a sort of contemplation of mortality - although 'True Blood' doesn't fall into that. Even though there's such a ridiculously high body count!

There are ways to pursue political change. In a democracy, it's through the ballot box. There are other ways, and many democracies have many different systems of democracy.

To flight approach shots lower with the scoring clubs - what I consider my 7-iron through wedges - I stand two or three inches closer to the ball than normal.
