My mom is really tough.

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.

Success and the pursuit of it can nourish your body, but only significance has the ability to nourish your mind, body and spirit.

Hell had been his Vietnam. It had stamped its mark on him for all eternity, and no amount of denial or self-imposed ignorance was going to change it. Ever.

Truth exists: whatever a man not able to tell is actually a truth!

It would be nice to feel that we are a better world, a world of more compassion and a world of more humanity, and to believe in the basic goodness of man.

The fans are dying. We're dying.

When you have the feeling that anything’s possible, sometimes you wind up acting on it.

Writing, printing, and the Internet give a false sense of security about the permanence of culture.

I'm flying everywhere in my private jet.

So wearing a corset certainly changes your state of mind.

The ideal racecar will expire 100 yards past the finish line.
