Gail Devers
In February 1991, I was rushed to the hospital in Los Angeles to have my feet amputated. Three years earlier, I had broken the national 100 meters hurdles record while a student at UCLA and was a favourite for the event at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

The whole art of teaching is only the art of awakening...Good listeners, like precious gems, are to be treasured...It's not the hair on your head that matters...Time and memory are true artists...There's an art to asking questions...Who ever hears of fat men heading a riot...
