The best way to protect your own freedom is to watch everybody else's back. That's the essence of community.

I went through a period at boarding school when my coaches wanted me to switch to snowboarding because they thought I was no good at skiing. I was too skinny. I had terrible technique. They were saying I should be a snowboarder, and luckily, I resisted.

I think four Olympics is probably enough. Five Olympics is a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that if I'm into it and I'm healthy and my priorities can fit around that.

I'm still having fun and as long as skiing is enjoyable, I'm going to continue to do it.

I like to keep my private life private for the most part.

When I was little, I spent a lot of time by myself. When other kids were in school, I was skiing and thinking about things. I was alone on the mountain.

The same people who recognize I came out with no medals should recognize I could have won three.
