I am building a fire, and everyday I train, I add more fuel. At just the right moment, I light the match.

Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you is a little girl who fell in love with the game and never looked back... play for her.

My coach said I ran like a girl, I said if he could run a little faster he could too

Celebrate what you've accomplished, but raise the bar a little higher each time you succeed.

I am a member of a team, and I rely on the team, I defer to it and sacrifice for it, because the team, not the individual, is the ultimate champion.

A winner is that person who gets up one more time than she is knocked down.

Failure happens all the time. It happens every day in practice. What makes you better is how you react to it.

The vision of a champion is bent over, drenched in sweat, at the point of exhaustion, when nobody else is looking.

I've worked too hard and too long to let anything stand in the way of my goals. I will not let my teammates down and I will not let myself down.

The backbone of success is...hard work, determination, good planning, and perserverence.

You can't just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again.

Writers and other artists are mostly just historians, produced by nature to describe, decipher and thus historically represent the universe.

Men must necessarily be the active agents of their own well-being and well-doing they themselves must in the very nature of things be their own best helpers.

A consistent soul believes in destiny, a capricious one in chance.

Ipsy's goal has always been to create a community that inspires women around the world to express their own unique beauty.

You know, it's not the world I would have wanted, for sure.

I can't stand to sing the same song the same way two nights in succession, let alone two years or ten years.

Very well. I shall try to think like an idiot.

I didn't play the game right because I saw a reward at the end of the tunnel.

I'm not going to die. If I'm going to die, it won't be now. So, I'm not going to limit myself. I will keep on going while I have the strength.

Museums should be places where you raise questions, not just show stuff.
