“I can understand how evolution says, “don’t believe in God”, but I’ve never had this problem.”

My parents always encouraged me and I had a good home life. We were always taught to respect things and other people. It’s so different today, because children are just not taught the right way.

I don’t concentrate on things I can’t do. I do what I can do.

You’ve got to stick at a thing, a particular thing, until you succeed.

I always felt free when I ran. I suppose that’s what was good about it.

No way did I ever think I was going to win the 100m.

I realized from a very early age that God gave me a gift, and that gift was to run, and I wanted to use it to the best of my ability.

I feel that’s the only way to succeed – by concentrating on something in particular. Once you know what you’ve got to do you will succeed, you will succeed.

My salvation was a free gift. I didn’t have to work for it and it’s better than any gold medal that I’ve ever won.

Everything I did that required effort, I opened my mouth. Even to catch a ball, I opened my mouth.

The things He did in Bible days, He still lives to do today. Not a burden is there He cannot bear nor a fetter He cannot break.

The devil knows the Bible like the back of his hand.

When a scientist says he believes the Bible–that doesnt give me anymore more faith in the Bible that gives me more faith in the scientist.

In my opinion what distinguishes the Bible from the other books is its sense of time. Its first concern is to establish a calendar. Then it traces a genealogy.

But I believe the greatest enemy of the Bible is the so-called Christian who simply ignores the Bible or disregards it.

Study the Bible to know about God. Obey the Bible to really know God.

And the Bible is not primarily a book of history. It is “His story,” the story of God.

Some people have enough dust on their bibles to write damnation on it.
