Many think that elite athletes like me are taken care of. But that is not true, only a few like Sindhu are looked after well.
Physically, when you are fit, mentally you are more alert and confident.
Right from my childhood I used to physically fight with boys.
Getting a medal is not a small feat, irrespective of what color it is.
In fact, I am a bit apprehensive about biopics on sporting personalities in our country after seeing a few films. But my biopic is not going to be the same; it's completely different.
If I lose a match, I don't get sad or feel down. But if I lose a close match, I surely have sleepless nights.
If you keep winning all the time, you may not learn a lot, but failure has a lot to teach.
I stopped playing mixed doubles and there is no result in mixed doubles. I was world number six. People who are talking about me and my performance and questioning my career and my achievements, where is the next mixed doubles pair, please show it to me. I would like to know.
Being a player, I am supposed to train and practice and only think about my game, what I have to develop and what weaknesses I have to take care of.
In doubles there was nobody before me. I have changed how people look at doubles.
I have done nothing wrong as captain of the Delhi Krrish Smashers franchisee in the IBL.
I don't expect people to understand, but as players who love the sport and have constantly been thrown a rock at by our association and now the Govt, there is only so much one can take.
Consistency is most important in international level and once you have it, you become a different player.
Unlike badminton playing major nations of the world, we never had a specialist doubles coach and so the discipline remained neglected.
I don't court controversies, but when I state facts, which are hard to digest for male-dominated authorities, they call them squabble.
I have fought back. From not being allowed to play, I have now qualified for Olympics in two events, it is satisfying. I feel proud.

We do think founders should be treated like athletes, going for gold really hard.

You never realize as an athlete there’s going to be an end until the end comes.
Justin Gatlin (QID920927)
I’m a big believer in the notion that to know where you are going, you have to know where everything has been.
Justin Kan (QID920690)
I think when you start talking about selling a company or a company wants to buy you, then you start thinking about how much money you’re going to have. That’s insidious because it saps your will to continue.
Justin Gatlin (QID920955)
A lot of people over the last couple of seasons have fallen prey to the unstoppable force Usain Bolt brings to the table. And they just become subdued. That’s not who I am. I’m not going to allow myself to become a subdued character.
Julius Randle (QID920510)
When I realized I was having a baby boy, I wanted him to know that I’m there in his life: ‘Dad loves him. Dad’s always going to support him and be there for him.’ I don’t want him to have to worry about anything.

In fact, I am a bit apprehensive about biopics on sporting personalities in our country after seeing a few films. But my biopic is not going to be the same; it’s completely different.
Julian Nagelsmann (QID920778)
In the stadium, when it is very noisy, you only have a limited influence as a coach. You need players on the field who understand the plan and who will talk to the guys when things are not going well.
Justin Gatlin (QID920595)
Critics are just what they are. They’re going to pick at the positivity of things.
Justin Gatlin (QID920601)
If I am given an opportunity to fight for my freedom, then I am going to fight for it.
June Brown (QID920824)
I don’t believe anything is going to happen until it does, until you see your name on a paper or it actually happens and you have something in your hand.
Julius Randle (QID920847)
My mom is my biggest supporter. She’s been there since day one. She’s always going to have my back.
Justin Gatlin (QID920621)
What is it really going to amount to if I go out there and run against Usain when he is not at his best? That is not a great storyline. It is not a race I would like to go out and win.
Julius Randle (QID920865)
Kobe’s going to challenge you and push you. If you have a certain fire, a love for the game, that doesn’t bother you.
Justin Gatlin (QID920630)
Every year, I laid out a strategy of what I was going to do, and I was very successful. In 2003, I wanted to take the world by storm, and I did that indoors. In 2004, I wanted to run fast; I did that. In 2005, I wanted to be dominant, and I did that as well.
Julius Randle (QID920870)
For me, as a 19-year-old kid going to L.A.? I ate whatever I wanted. I ate all the fast foods, the sweets – that was nothing to me. Now, I’m very conscious of what I eat.
Justin Gatlin (QID920637)
There are not going to be medals passed out to everybody in the world. It is going to be passed out to one person, the champion.
Justin Kan (QID920645)
If you look at our original business model with the verticalized law firm, a lot of these companies that have this kind of full stack model are not going to survive. A lot of these companies, Atrium included, did not figure out how to make a dent in operational efficiency.
