I encourage girls to play sports and play hard.

I'm strong, I'm tough, I still wear my eyeliner.

Everyone talks about age, but it's not about age. It's about work ethic. Winning never gets old.

For me, being tall was very positive because I thought my mom was the most beautiful person ever.

I have 'the first' attached to my name in a whole lot of different aspects when it comes to the sport of basketball.

Boys have a tendency to jump around a lot more than girls. Boys have that desire to want to dunk way more than girls do. It just never seemed like something we could truly fathom and do.

I'm a better and more educated person because of basketball.

If, by the way I play, I can be a role model or encourage someone else, that would be great.

When I watch kids play basketball, they don't know how to think the game. They know what it should look like, but they don't know why.

Right now I'm 185, which is really good for me yet very hard for me to maintain. My weight seems high for the average woman, but I've got big bones and I'm maintaining muscle.

To feel the presence of the Lord is an amazing thing.

The champions of liberty have the medal for any necklace. (Les champions de la liberte - Ont la médaille pour tout collier)

Expect the best, Prepare for the worst.

For me, modern technology has ruined romance and movies - nobody can run to the airplane gate anymore.

Since the generality of persons act from impulse, much more than from principle, men are neither so good nor so bad as we are apt to think them.

I think we should look to countries like Denmark, like Sweden and Norway, and learn from what they have accomplished for their working people.

Choose your pleasures for yourself, and do not let them be imposed upon you.

I'd rather look ridiculous when everybody else does than plain and sensible all by myself.

The more matches I play, the more confident I get.

When I write, I get glimpses into future novels.

Don’t accept the world as it is. Dream of what the world could be - and then help make it happen.
