More quotes by Usain Bolt
I leaned too early. I was running, I looked across, I realised I was going to win - the thought I was on for a world record entered my mind - I reached for the line when I should have stayed straight.
Usain Bolt
When I played football, I liked being a goalkeeper or a midfielder. I was probably better at cricket. I would be a very good cricketer if I was a professional now. I think I would probably have been the best, in fact.
Usain Bolt
I have just accepted certain things and it makes it easier. I accept I will get injured. I accept I cannot win every race. I work hard to decrease the chances of those things happening but I accept they will happen. A lot of people don't accept it. They get injured, they go crazy.
Usain Bolt
There are better starters than me but I'm a strong finisher.
Usain Bolt
Sometimes you lose sight of what's going on around you.
Usain Bolt
I know what I can do so it doesn't bother me what other people think or their opinion on the situation.
Usain Bolt
Every season something happens so I programme that in something will happen.
Usain Bolt
I work hard, and I do good, and I'm going to enjoy myself. I'm not going to let you restrict me.
Usain Bolt
I can still improve a lot, but there is definitely a limit to what the human body can do.
Usain Bolt
I always support Argentina. I watched a lot of the European Championships but wasn't supporting one team. I knew some players in a few of the teams and was just seeing how they played. It was nice for Ronaldo to win with Portugal.
Usain Bolt
I'd like to say to all my fans out there, thanks for the support. And to all my doubters, thank you very much because you guys have also pushed me.
Usain Bolt
I looked up to Don Quarrie and Michael Johnson when I was younger. They were the best in the 200m which was my main event growing up.
Usain Bolt
Unfortunately, I don't usually get to see much outside the Olympics as I compete almost every day. I have been to Rio a few times and got a tour of the sites. It is a spectacular city.
Usain Bolt
I've learned over the years that if you start thinking about the race, it stresses you out a little bit. I just try to relax and think about video games, what I'm gonna do after the race, what I'm gonna do just to chill. Stuff like that to relax a little before the race.
Usain Bolt
There's a lot of great Olympians, but for me, I try to prove myself as one of the best - and that's the key thing.
Usain Bolt
We're not like the distance guys. I have a very simple approach. I don't overcomplicate. People ask me, are you doing 42 steps, 44 steps for 100 metres? I don't know.
Usain Bolt
Racing comes easily to me, especially the 100 metres. That is why, no matter how fast I run the run the 100 metres, the 200 will always mean more to me, because of the effort I've put in.
Usain Bolt
Surprisingly, maybe the place I get recognised the least is the United States. America is not so big on track and field. Some recognise me there but lots don't.
Usain Bolt
I want to be one of the greatest athletes ever to live, not only in track and field, but in all of general sport.
Usain Bolt
When people contact me on Instagram or Facebook, kids and adults, who say, You're an inspiration. You make me want to work hard to achieve my goals. If I can still do that after I retire that makes me feel good.
