Thank you to everyone that has made me the athlete I am! God, family and friends, my competitors and supporters! You have all had a hand! ↗

I don't want to be competing in a sport where I feel that I'm here not on my talent and my hard work but because of a piece of equipment. ↗

I still find it strange, I suppose, when I say to someone, 'Can you just pass me my leg?' But I don't ever think about my disability. ↗

I want to wake up every day and feel that I'm training harder than my competitors, that I'm dieting harder, that I'm recovering better. That's what gives me confidence when I'm lining up on the blocks. I've never gone out to prove people wrong. I just want to be the best that I can possibly be. ↗

My parents didn't give me any scope to feel sorry for myself. They were just like 'go play with your brother, go climb a tree, go fall off your motorbike, do whatever you want. Don't come crying to us when you get scratched. You've got prosthetic legs - that's very nice.' ↗

To have been selected to represent Team South Africa at the London 2012 Olympic Games in the individual 400m and the 4x400m relay is a real honor and I am so pleased that years of hard work, determination and sacrifice have all come together. ↗

In any country when you throw something in somebody's face, it's disrespectful. ↗

Every time I reach a new audience, that means I'm doing something right. ↗

I'm definitely someone who enjoys life and wakes up with a ball of energy. ↗

Music to me is something I did as a hobby. ↗
