"I don't think age matters. In cricket, if you have the skill, you can go on playing."

"Once I step over that white line I become The Bowler."

"I want to keep experimenting and trying to change my game."

"It's important to get under your opponent's skin and let them know that you are coming for them out in the middle. When you do that, half the battle's won!"

"I will play until I can't play anymore."

"Normally if I am on holiday I'll be planning a fishing trip or a surfing trip."

"It might sound very cocky or naive of me, or self-centered, but I want to win a World Cup for my country."

"Every ball matters - if with the last ball the opposition need four to win, and you've gone for 96, can you get that out of your mind and bowl a dot ball and win the game?"

"I mean everyone's always spoken about fast bowlers and especially myself as a strike bowler, but I look at myself as somebody who could hold down the runs, you know, over 200 games, I've taken a lot of wickets but I've got a pretty decent economy rate."

"I don't know what it is about fast bowling. I guess it's the ability to do something that nobody else can really do."

"I have started not to take things too seriously, loving life is my motto."

"When I am off the field, I am the calm, very quiet kind of easy-sailing ocean, and then when I am on a hot streak with a cricket ball, I can be the most disastrous waters you have ever been in."

"Do I like being No. 1? Absolutely. Who doesn't?"

"When you are in the company of greatness, there is only one thing to do: to raise your game."

"World class players don't become rubbish overnight, especially over one tour."

"I come across as quite aggressive and quite in people's faces and everything like that, but I know where to draw the line."

"I think it's really difficult for women to be involved with sportsmen that travel, or men to be involved with men or women, whoever it may be."

"Test matches are what really drive me to perform."

"I would love to win a trophy for South Africa in white ball cricket."

"I would love to be in quarantine with someone like Quinny de Kock. He is one of my favourite people in the world."

"I very rarely get to enjoy doing nothing."

"The kind of fishing that I do is pretty much bass, trout or freshwater fishing."

"In my opinion Test cricket is the best version of this game. It tests you mentally, physically, emotionally."

"It's terrible to consider never playing another Test again but what's more terrifying is the thought of never playing again at all."

"I used to be grumpy. I am no more. I am old now. See my grey beards."

"I think the more common players who have been around for a while - Joe Root, Alastair Cook, Jimmy Anderson, Stuart Broad - those guys I know of, they're fantastic players."

"I've never been bothered about being the highest wicket-taker in the world or the best South African bowler in the world."

"I've never chased records."

"As long as I've got that urge and that fight and fire inside of me I'll continue and records will come and records will be broken. But the day I don't feel that kind of stuff I'm happy to walk away."

"Generally I don't say too much on the field. However, I am a fast bowler and with that comes the responsibility of saying a word or two and getting in a guy's face."
