If you work so hard to reach your goal but you lose your pole in the very last run, that's hard to take.

Follow your dreams. If you have a goal, and you want to achieve it, then work hard and do everything you can to get there, and one day it will come true.

When you fall, get right back up. Just keep going, keep pushing it.

I think the most important thing in skiing is you have to be having fun. If you're having fun, then everything else will come easy to you.

I want to keep pushing the limits to see what’s possible. That’s the nice thing about ski racing - no one is stopping you from going faster.

I find folding laundry very relaxing.

If you go around being afraid, you're never going to enjoy life. You have only one chance, so you've got to have fun.

You are only limited to what you push yourself to, you know? You can always get better.

I don't give up easily. I have plans to be around for a while.

I'm never tired of winning, and I'm never tired of skiing.

I always channeled what I felt emotionally into skiing - my insecurities, my anger, my disappointment. Skiing was always my outlet, and it worked.

What a great pleasure to work for your living?

I want to be cremated so people won't come to worship at my bones.

The phases of fire are craving and satiety.

I don't need the stars in the night I found my treasure All I need is you by my side so shine forever

It hinges on oil. Europeans feel they handled the boycott after the Yom Kippur War [1973] very badly. The Arabs need to sell oil; otherwise they cannot live.

Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it well and serenely

I used to dream, and I used to vow; I wouldn't dream of it now.

I'm a God-fearing man who worships with my heart and with my life.
