I don't think there are really enough meetings in Britain for our athletes to compete properly, and because of this a lot of the talent we have has been stunted.

Adopting a new healthier lifestyle can involve changing diet to include more fresh fruit and vegetables as well as increasing levels of exercise.

But I sometimes think we have too much of a fixation about 2012.

There was no money in the sport but we'd be out there day in, day out, rain or shine, doing it.

Some of today's athletes do not have that kind of pride. They left school at 16, have never had a job in their life and are getting Lottery funding, earning money as an athlete.

I know what it takes to get to the top.

If you criticise something then you have to have an alternative, but we do have to try and improve things.

I am a coach on the outside of the establishment and that works.

I think it's great that they are getting funding, but it's just too easy. They don't have to work for it. We did it because we had pride, because we loved it.

I coach a few guys and they work very, very hard, but in our day we did it because we just loved it.

We have got to go out there and deliver, go on the streets and find athletes, improve facilities around the country and find coaches. We have got to go out there and search for a star.

Fantasy is an excellent platform to shine new lights on old truths.

Real Fathers are men of integrity & honour. Their word is their bond.

Lust, I suspect, wears repatent stilettos, that feather boa and not much else. Maybe glossy red lipstick.

More and more I don't have any philosophy about writing, except that it is something we can do if God is good to us. Of course we are the ones who have to do the paperwork.

I have an answering machine in my car. It says, I'm home now. But leave a message and I'll call when I'm out.

An anomaly is not an abnormality. Diversity does not signify sickness.

when you stumble, keep faith. And when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on.

Among fifty percent of your married couples, the husband worries very little about what his wife is doing, provided she is doing all he wishes.

Keep the child within alive. A child never tires of hearing the birds sing, never gets bored looking at flowers.

If you don't transform your suffering, you'll transmit it.
