Setbacks motivate me.

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.

If you keep your emotions locked in a box, then when you want to open it one day you'll find that they're gone.

I didn't have high self-esteem when I was a teen-ager, as I think most teen-agers don't.

I think because I was brought up in a Christian home, I was kind of careful not to swear in my lyrics.

I'm always learning from experiences because each one is different and there are different players involved in the project at the time with their own way of doing things

I mean, in a way, Obama's standing above the country, above — above the world, he's sort of God.

You know, when you're right, that's all you get to be.

Religions become corrupted when leaders are assigned to explain God's will to people instead of showing them how to find this direction within themselves.

The main thing I look at is: Is it from the heart? If I know that you down with me, then we always gonna be down through whatever the thick and thin.

Abortion is a woman's right.

Our power lies in our love of our homelands.
