I Always Separated Sports And My Personal

An Athlete And Actor Are Really Two Different Temperaments, Night And Day. As An Athlete You Really Keep Things Out And As An Actor You Really Bring Things In.

After I Left The Podium In Atlanta, I Felt So Fulfilled In My Career That I Lost My Desire To Compete At That Level Again.

By Carrying The Torch, You Will Be Bridging Cultural And Social Barriers, And All The Boundaries That Separate Nation From Nation.

I'm Very Serious About Becoming A Dramatic Actor. I Don't Want To Play Cameo Parts Walking On As Carl Lewis The Athlete. I Want To Go On Stage Or Screen And Be Taken Seriously.

I'm Not Supposed To Be Able To Speak Clearly, And Decipher What's Going On In The Media. I'm Supposed To Be The Typical Amateur Who's 22 And Scared To Death And Can't Believe He Won The Olympics.
