Tyson Gay quotes:

When I grew up Carl Lewis was still running, Maurice Greene was running - he was that figure I see, like Michael Johnson. I really wanted to look up to the fast guys - so those two guys were some of the guys I looked up to.

I played football in high school, I played baseball when I was younger, things like that, but I think it was the passion I had for track where you want to do an individual sport and be the best, I think - there's nothing that can replace that.

I eat 230 grams of protein daily, 308 grams of carbohydrates, maybe 70 grams of fat. I can have one cheat meal a week but it can't be that I eat until I'm stuffed; I eat until I'm satisfied.

I do a lotta trash talking to keep me motivated, to keep me to not want to lose.

My daughter's mother and I are no longer dating, and the people I'm most likely to date are those around me, who are athletes.

But I believe the older I get, I'm wiser and I train smarter.

I want to find that defining moment that you're satisfied and you've done what you want to do in your life.

I lift weights and I run, thats what I do.

I save the race for the race and I don't let it all out in practice.

I want to run with the best, that's how I've always lived.

I'm 29 years-old and, sure, I'm looking to find a wife,

I've dated athletes before but it's too tough because we have the same job, we deal with the same problems and both do a very selfish sport,
