I always have a new haircut.

I just line up, and I compete.

I am surrounded by great people.

It means a lot to defend my title.

Being in Jamaica, I feel comfortable there.

Sometimes things are a blessing in disguise.

My ambition is to sit behind a desk and work.

I like colours. I like to be bright and bold.

I don't think I could survive in cold places.

As athletes, our job is to train and compete.

I want to tell Jamaica, Happy 50th Anniversary.

The 200 m. is the event I want to get better at.

There is always the excitement of running races.

We are making strides in educating our athletes.

There will always be a lot of pressure to cope with.

I'm glad women's sprinting is taking the course it is.

I am one of those athletes who is very hard on myself.

I just trust in God, work hard, and focus on executing.

I am looking forward to my next race. What comes, comes.

It's Jamaican women and children who are my inspiration.

Getting three gold medals is something I'll really cherish.

It's not about where you're from: it's about how to deliver.

The plan is to always start properly and execute a good race.

No matter what comes, I will always work hard and do my best.

I want to do new things, and I want to do more 200s than 100s.

It is so important that our federation stands by our athletes.

Women's sprinting is something the sport should appreciate more.

The 200 m. is not my best event, and it's something I am learning.

Education is paramount in light of so many things that are out there.

I'm getting to be an expert in finding hairdressers in foreign cities.

I live my life very clean and transparent - so I have nothing to hide.

I just want to execute a good 200 m. and see what is the best I can do.

I guess I've been to the hairdressers in more than 10 different countries.

If anyone wants to ask a question or to suggest something, I'm always open.

Just do your schoolwork, focus on a sport if you're good at it, do what I did.

I don't know much about the history of track and field, but I know Gail Devers.

I had a really bad running posture: like, I ran, literally, dropping on my face.

It takes a lot of hard work to stay committed and focus on what I wanted to achieve.

Hard work is something that comes without saying for us to achieve the things we want.

I didn't know I was the first woman to have won three world titles, but hey, that's awesome!

I'm trying not to overwork the muscles because I'm thinking about accomplishing this great feat.

I never - in my dreams, doing track in high school, I didn't imagine it would turn out like this.

I don't dwell on things. When I won the World Championships in Moscow, I came back - that was it.

Some things as an athlete are very important for us. Representing our country for us is important.

I have been tested a lot by Jadco and different parties wherever I go, so there is nothing to hide.

When they announce who I am and what I've achieved, I still pinch myself to make sure I'm not dreaming.

I enjoy running in Doha. The stadium is close and intimate, which makes you feel connected with the fans.

Everybody talks about Bolt. Now they can talk about the ladies who are running some really wonderful times.

No matter where you come from, we all share the same struggles as human beings, and my beginning is no different.

My confidence is not in man, it's in God, and so I look forward to the semi-finals with that in mind, absent of fear.
