Politics is tricky, especially in Jamaica. There are two parties, Jamaica Labour Party and People's National Party, and if I went for one, I would upset supporters of the other. I stay as far from politics as I can.

More quotes by Usain Bolt
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
My relationship with everyone in Jamaica is good.
Usain Bolt
I can't really live outside Jamaica. I can be away, but only for a while.
Usain Bolt
But if I keep my core and back strong, the scoliosis doesn't really bother me.
Usain Bolt
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
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
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
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
Manners is the key thing. Say, for instance, when you're growing up, you're walking down the street, you've got to tell everybody good morning. Everybody. You can't pass one person.
Usain Bolt
I have to show who I am, play with the crowd, play with the camera. When people come to a race, part of it is the anticipation, What is he going to do?
Usain Bolt
The clubs, that's easy to cut out, because I know when the season ends I can look forward to going out.
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
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
I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.
Usain Bolt
Sometimes you lose sight of what's going on around you.
Usain Bolt
My favorite thing is always wings. That is my guilty pleasure.
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
Once a year I will clean my room, just because I feel I should.
Usain Bolt
It's a great feat for me to have broken my world record.
Usain Bolt
The more success I have with track and field the bigger my brand is. So I would say I'm more of a brand now, trying to build for the future.
