You have to be a little crazy to be a downhill skier.

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.

In the end, perfection is just a concept - an impossibility we use to torture ourselves and that contradicts nature.

In a small town, it's either sports or a band with your buddies. I was always athletic. But in college, I was exposed to all this new music, and I was drawn to hip-hop and R&B.

We don't want two-tier health care in Canada - one tier for Quebec and another tier for the rest of the country.

Nothing that can be, can come between me and the full prospect of my hopes.

I've always been an underdog. I feel like I beat the odds.

The hardest thing [for me] is to 'just' agree, and that is what sparks creativity, the feeling that something can be better, the feeling that something's missing, the feeling that something's needed.

Let us not only scatter benefits, but even strew flowers for our fellow-travellers, in the rugged ways of this wretched world.

Being right half the time beats being half-right all the time.

Great people have a vision of their lives that they practice emulating each and every day. They go to work on their lives, not just in their lives.
