You know, I love wearing heels. I wish I could wear them all the time, but, you know, my sport doesn't really permit it.

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.

The conscience is the most flexible material in the world. Today you cannot stretch it over a mole hill; while tomorrow it can hide a mountain.

Ah, Fist, it’s the curse of history that those who should read them, never do.
