I don't like watching myself on TV, I don't like reading about myself.

I'm just an all-around happy girl who loves everything about her life.

A huge part of swimming for me is I love it, and it is so much fun.

Sometimes we complain, but there is something beautiful about waking up before everyone to get better at what we love.

The goal is to keep having fun. Not let that pressure get to me and still be Missy.

For me, it seems to help me take the pressure off if I don't pay attention to what other people are telling me.

I'm always so excited about what I do that I try to get everyone to feel that way.

I haven't even thought about a world record. I just want to go out there and have fun. I think when you focus too much on the numbers, you don't see anything that's out there.

Hopefully I don't annoy people too much.

I don't think about the trials and the Olympics a lot. If I do, it's just going to stress me out and get me worried.

For right now, I still believe that college is what's going to make me the happiest girl.

But here we see the peace of God is not the absence of negative thoughts, it is the presence of God himself.

I have olive skin, so if I'm in the sun for even 15 minutes, I turn brown.

The glory of each generation is to make its own precedents.

A good story remains a good story, whether it is on glossy paper or a mobile phone display, is carved into marble tablets or appears as a Bild headline.

I often feel, and ever more deeply I realize, that fate and character are the same conception.

Generally it's not a good idea to wear Banana Republic - type khaki journalist clothes in a war zone. You might look too much like something that's supposed to be shot, such as a journalist.

I feel like 'embattled' or 'disgraced' will always follow my name. It's like that black football player who recently came out.

I'm so much more famous than I am financially successful.

There are very few courses around Detroit I haven't played

The flocks fear the wolf, the crops the storm, and the trees the wind.
