I try to live my life to the best, but I just always preach that you should just work hard and do your best.
Usain Bolt
In Jamaica, you learn as a child how to roll a joint. Everyone here has tried it. I did too
Usain Bolt
I've worked hard over the years, I've been injured and I've worked hard through it, and I've made it.
Usain Bolt
I don't even like to go out onto the streets sometimes because I can't get anything done. People want pictures and autographs all the time.
Usain Bolt
The hard part for me is rest. I am a person who stays up late. If I go to bed early, I don't sleep, but I know I have to rest. That is always a struggle for me.
Usain Bolt
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
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.

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.

As long as I'm in good shape, you'll always see me smiling.
Usain Bolt
I had thought that I would stop in 2017, but my coach has told me to stop saying that as I may continue into 2018. I'm not thinking about it at the moment.
Usain Bolt
Every season, for me, it's like starting from scratch again.
Usain Bolt
There are things that bother me. I try not to let them, but they do.
Usain Bolt
I don't like losing anyways.
Usain Bolt
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.
Usain Bolt
It's always a wake-up call to get beaten.
Usain Bolt
I know what to do and I go and execute.
Usain Bolt
You have good days and bad days.
Usain Bolt
Come on... when you're running, if you see you're going to win, you're going to celebrate.
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.
