Most people don't think about plyometrics when they think about powerful strength. But I do lots of them to build mine.

I'm always nervous. If I wasn't nervous, it would be weird. I get the same feeling at all the big races. It's part of the routine, and I accept it. It means I'm there and I'm ready.

I have learned that track doesn't define me. My faith defines me. I'm running because I have been blessed with a gift.

I'm really laid back but I still like to dress up sometimes.

I always want to give more than I gave yesterday.

I try to think about my goals. I think about my competitors-I know they're working hard, and if they are, I have to work hard too. I have to be one step ahead of them.

Everyone sees the glory moments, but they don't see what happens behind the scenes.

Every moment is not great and sometimes those are the moments in which you learn the most.

My speed is a gift from God, and I run for His glory. Whatever I do, it all comes from him.

Philippians 1:21 is very special to me because it helps to keep my life centered.

I'm just competitive. It doesn't matter what it is. I want to win.

When the Aggregates arise, decay and die, O bhikkhu, every moment you are born, decay, and die.

They were both poles apartOne a ready masterpieceAnother an unfinished art...

Craft the story now so you'll be proud to tell it later.

To be at peace with the world, you must first find peace in yourself.

Suffering may be someones fault or it may not be anyones fault. But if given to God, our suffering becomes an opportunity to experience the power of God at work in our lives and to give glory to Him.

I love doing comedy. One of my favorite things in the world is to do Parks and Recreation; a big fun character.

Nothing is sadder than laughter; nothing more beautiful, more magnificent, more uplifting and enriching than the terror of deep despair.

Great art is always a balancing act. But all art has both - an emotional content and an intellectual content.

Love people and serve them.
