My reason for coming out isn't to be some sort of hero.

No matter how far life pushes you down, no matter how much you hurt, you can always bounce back.

Be positive and work hard. I think it's possible to overcome anything, if you're willing to work at it.

If you do not believe yourself no one else will.

I've always been a firm believer in mind over matter. If you don't believe you can achieve, your body will start to believe this and you'll be stuck.

I always believe someone somewhere is working harder than me and that motivates me to work harder, give 100%.

It didn't matter how good I was. It was always, 'You're a girl. You can't play with the guys.' It's always been motivation for me.

Players don't really ask for much or want much. But the things that they do need are important.

As a result of Title IX, and a new generation of parents who want their daughters to have the opportunities they never had, women's sports have arrived.

Women play just as hard as guys do. We're just as competitive.

You have to be positive, and I'm not just talking about athletics, this also applies to life.

Encourage kids to enjoy running and play in athletics. Don't force them to run too much competition.

Sarcasm is the language of people whose emotions are dying.

Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.

I'm a pretty aggressive girl in general. So if there's a boy that I like, you're going to know how I feel. I just put it out there.

Those who can't laugh at themselves leave the job to others.

Filming a pirate film is always good fun, with ships and indecent clothing.

Envy is destroyed by true friendship, as coquetry by true love.

Today, if you were to look at my CD collection, it might scare some people.

The one and only thing over which you have complete and total control is how you focus your own mind. Luckily, this determines everything else.

I cannot keep track and lots of great shows go unnoticed.
