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.

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

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

My God is love and sweetly suffers all.

The nice thing about being away from home is the feeling of excitement when returning to it!

Never will I understand the mentallity of a man, who can plant his own seed and not watch it grow.

I've been lucky and have played some interesting characters - I'd quite like to play Sweeny Todd.

There are a lot of things that you can like at a distance without spending a huge amount of time pondering. It's not so complicated.

A lot of the time, the way it's portrayed is that I only see women in a sexual way. But I grew up with just my mum and sister, so I respect women a lot.

I had been an eyewitness to a truly historic moment in American pop culture.

I do have the cheesiest of cheesy chat-up lines used on me.

The fate of our times is characterized by rationalization and intellectualization and, above all, by the disenchantment of the world.

Among the worlds 500 largest companies, not one has completely relied on its own growth to develop.
