Cathy Freeman
Disappointment and adversity can be catalysts for greatness. There's something particularly exciting about being the hunter, as opposed to the hunted. And that can make for powerful energy.
Cathy Freeman
People could see in me who I am now, an Olympic champ, the best in the world.
Cathy Freeman
The thing I do best is laugh.
Cathy Freeman
I took only twice a time-out, once, when I was hurt, and a second time, when I much felt I was exhausted out of personal reasons.
Cathy Freeman
My mind is pretty made up that life for Cathy Freeman will be as an unmarried woman from now on.
Cathy Freeman
I'm not a marriage expert, quite clearly.
Cathy Freeman
When I'm in a bad mood, I don't listen.

For athletes traditionally it's such a fantastic stepping stone to greater things down the track and in the future. Don't undermine the Commonwealth Games!
