More quotes by Cathy Freeman
The Athens Olympics will be meaningful even though I cannot participate as an athlete, since I can participate in the flame relay all over the world.
Cathy Freeman
I decided that I was going to go to the Olympics to see if I had made the right decision to retire because I knew that if I'd made the mistake of retiring I would know during and after those Games in Athens.
Cathy Freeman
People could see in me who I am now, an Olympic champ, the best in the world.
Cathy Freeman
Twenty seconds before a race, there's absolute focus. The key thing is to achieve relaxation, but at the same to have absolute total control. You've got to find the balance between being totally ready to go and being really at peace with yourself as well.
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
I'm learning in my own sort of quiet, out-of-the-spotlight kind of way. I certainly have my general point of view about the government, and the future of our children. I'm certainly learning all the time, I'm happy to be an onlooker for now.
Cathy Freeman

Cathy Freeman
I'm certainly not ready to go changing the world overnight right now. I'm completely uninformed about a lot of our issues, a lot of the nation's issues, not just Indigenous issues.
Cathy Freeman
The last sort of really low-key race I ran, I realized with about a hundred metres to go, that my heart just wasn't in it. I wasn't trying my hardest, I didn't care to compete against the girls I was up against. That spoke a lot about where my heart was taking me-which was off the track.
Cathy Freeman
My feelings tried to control me on my run. I had to concentrate fully on forthcoming running and success. I wanted to triumph.
Cathy Freeman
Peace, unity and harmony!
Cathy Freeman
This occasion is personally very meaningful and I hope to visit Korea again if I have the chance.
Cathy Freeman
I like looking feminine and I enjoy being a role model. I enjoy being a woman. It all comes down to having the confidence to be who you are.
Cathy Freeman
The thing I do best is laugh.
Cathy Freeman
With Alexander's cancer, I was definitely brought to my knees for the first time because of the fear factor.
Cathy Freeman
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!
Cathy Freeman
I'm doing something now where I'm going to have to learn so much and that takes time nurturing, those kinds of relationships.
Cathy Freeman
Money makes life easier but I don't want to be rich, not at all.
