My whole career has been trying to please people in basketball. Now it's time to please myself.

I think it's great that young girls have the WNBA to look up to now.

Today I know that there is still work to be done, but along the way I am achieving my dreams.

So you have to take the good with the bad.

You're measured by championships no matter what.

On my best days, such as when I was a junior in high school coming off a 42-point performance and near triple-double, my dad was there to tell me I haven't arrived yet and bring me back to reality.

I don't think I would take the game with the same mentality that I do now if I hadn't been injured.

For me, family has always come first.

My dad was my first coach and drove me extremely hard from a very young age.

I wouldn't mind being the female MJ. I want to have major crossover appeal.

From my first dunk at 14 years old to my second NCAA Championship at the University of Tennessee, my intense training with my dad was always to credit.

It's utterly beautiful not to know my own edges.

Love!' said the princess. She stamped her foot. 'Why must everyone always speak of love?

Leave the wrong done by another where the wrong arose.

Calm and serene The sound of a cicada Penetrates the rock.

Because sometimes when things are going really well, we find the one thing we're pretending we're not looking for.

I see some recurring themes: things that feel threaded together, some symbolic references, and songs about some of the big questions, like death. There are a lot of references to weather, too!

My heart is definitely here, and there's no place like home.
