“Athletics really was my secondary sport, cricket was my first love.” — Colin Jackson Quote

“Athletics really was my secondary sport, cricket was my first love.”

“I did feel guilty when my peers around me who were training just as hard weren't getting the rewards that I was, so I'd pay for them to come warm-weather training with me or pay for everyone's dinner when we went out.”

“In international competition, the earlier you can make inroads into your opponent's psyche the better.”

“Compared to our era, facilities in athletics have increased manifold. But contemporary athletes are not mentally tough. The new generation wants everything easily, but it is not possible in athletics.”

“If you get a great wife who understands the demands of someone in athletics, I think that's important.”

“It's clear that women athletics are pretty far behind in every way. In terms of facilities, how much we make, everything.”
