Basketball is always a piece of my life, but never the centerpiece.

Make it a point to be around those with positive energy - people who want what's best for you, people who understand your goals and priorities.

My goals have gone from being an all-star to just being able to play basketball. I always took for granted that I could play. Now I know what a gift it is.

I think every time I go in a game, I have added something positive. I have gotten a rebound or made a defensive play. That is what I try to focus on.

Femininity and sport can go together.

I'm happy and at peace with where I am at life.

I like being on the floor, listening in on the huddles. It makes me feel like a player again.

Winning an Olympic gold medal is like nothing else.

Ridiculous stuff happens when I travel.

I am being taken care of by a higher being than myself or my coaches or my training staff.

I have no regrets about my career or retiring. Not once have I thought 'Gosh, I wish I was back on the court.

No wild beasts are so deadly to humans as most Christians are to each other.

Truth leads to good deeds, and good deeds lead to Paradise. Falsehood leads to evil deeds, and evil deeds lead to the Fire.

Sincerity is the foundation of the spiritual life.

I'm a terrible singer. I feel lucky to play baseball. You can't be gifted in everything.

Anybody who's against birth control and abortion has to be a criminal idiot.

In this light, my spirit saw through all things and into all creatures and I recognized God in grass and plants.

The horse is flesh and blood on a noble scale

You don't realize what you're going to get, and you can't prepare yourself for it.

You are making an inopportune rejection of what Nature has given you today, if all your mind is set on what men will say of you tomorrow.

I’d rather be vindictive than smart. (Solin)
