The majority of the things that I do, I'm actually afraid to do, but you just have to have a positive attitude and block out any fears that you have.

If I had tried the Olympics any younger, I wouldn't have been as prepared as I am right now. But there are definitely a ton of juniors out there, all around the world and in the USA, that if there was no age limit, they could definitely make the Olympic team.

I've never been cocky. Even right now I don't like to talk about the Olympics.

I just stay focused, and I always think about gymnastics. I am just doing what I always do... working really hard and pushing myself to the maximum and keeping myself motivated.

There's nothing better than going out there and seeing USA on your leotard.

I'm focused now, definitely. I absolutely need to show everyone that I'm powerful and strong and can be graceful and artistic, too.
