Each great athlete must some day bow to that perennial old champion, Father Time, even as I, for Time eventually wins.

An athlete must have ability to reach the top, but many who have ability and who do not live clean lives never have and never will be champions for obvious reasons.

Modesty should be typical of the success of a champion.

I would like to cite an instance which proves the efficacy of clean living on the part of an athlete coupled with the inspiration received from a champion which go a long way to making a champion.

I want to go ahead of Father Time with a scythe of my own.

Mother Nature and Father Time have not been happy with me.
