My stance has always been that theres no place in our sport for drug users. Ive always said its a ban for life if you come up positive. I stand by that. – Maurice Greene
You have got to believe in yourself every time you go out there and race. If you have no faith in your ability all that training has been a waste of time. – Maurice Greene
Youd like more people to recognise what you do is special. But I take the attitude that the best thing I can do for my sport is to be the best at it. The best way people will come to recognise that track and field is a great sport is to see athletes excelling at it. Which is what I intend to do. – Maurice Greene

I never appreciated positive heroes in literature. They are almost always cliches, copies of copies, until the model is exhausted. I prefer perplexity, doubt, uncertainty, not just because it provides a more productive literary raw material, but because that is the way we humans really are. – Jose Saramago
