Quote

I have to move on now as there is no point to dwell on the past. I have a few days to refocus and get ready for the 200 meters on Friday. After this I have the 4×100-meter and a few other races before the end of the season.

More quotes by Usain Bolt

Image
When I was younger I always wanted to impress, to be good for my country, to make them feel good, and sometimes that meant I didn't focus on myself enough. I learned I had to put myself first. And it's fine because I want for me the same thing that they want for me, which is to win.

Where I'm from, there is no violence, pretty much.

Image
Don't think about the start of the race, think about the ending.
Usain Bolt
Image
I am doing what I do [athletics] because the fans love it and it's a part of me, it's my personality. I think people come to see you run fast, but they also come to see a show, a performance. They want to see a personality, and that's what I give them.

A few people have said I should let you win

I try not to eat too much fast food but still go for hot wings occasionally. As I get older, I have to pay more attention to my diet. My favorite food is jerk pork.

Sleep is extremely important to me - I need to rest and recover in order for the training I do to be absorbed by my body.

The clubs, that's easy to cut out, because I know when the season ends I can look forward to going out.
Usain Bolt
Image
I actually had nuggets and mostly Asian food when I was at the Olympics. But as soon as I got back to Jamaica, or when I was in London, I had a lot of wings. That was the first thing I asked for - Hey, get me some wings.

I've got everything I wanted so I'm just happy.
Usain Bolt
Image
I was not stressing about what other people wanted. I put myself first.
Usain Bolt
Image
We Jamaicans are not so much stressed about time, you know, but you have to stay on top of it. And, of course, on the track, every time we go on the track, it is all about the seconds and the fractions of a second that count.
Usain Bolt
Image
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
Image
It was not perfect but I'm very happy. It could have been better, but I'm now looking forward to my second race of the season.
Usain Bolt
Image
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.

For me, I'm focused on what I want to do. I know what I need to do to be a champion, so I'm working on it.
Usain Bolt
Image
I can't watch a [Floyd] Mayweather fight. I don't find it exciting. I used to watch boxing in the [Michael] Tyson era when it was exciting. Now it's all bob and weave, a punch here and there. It is not entertaining.
Usain Bolt
Image
I was always brought up to believe in Him [God], and to behave in certain ways. That is what my parents taught me and I always trust my parents. They have great values.
Usain Bolt
Image
I don't go to church so much, but I do believe in God and I understand the consequences of faith.
Usain Bolt
Image
If you feel strongly about something and you want to voice your opinion, I feel it's your right, so, that's how I look at it because that's how life is.
