All my career that time had been in my mind, like it was for most runners, What Ben did was wrong, but he still ran that time.
Interview: Maurice Greene, August 19 2002
I love my work. Every day is a surprise. When you've had the jobs I've had you don't complain when you've got a good one. And I've got the best.
Thank God it's Monday. It's a beautiful day out here. We're not behind no desk. We're not fighting no traffic. We're out here working with the ability God gave us.
