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.

Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.

There's been times when I've been in really tough shape at the top of the course. Talk about a hard challenge right there. I mean, if you ever tried to ski when you're wasted, it's not easy. Try and ski a slalom when … you hit a gate less than every one a second, so it's risky, you know. You're putting your life at risk there. It's like driving drunk only there's no rules about it in ski racing.

Ski racers are built odd with overbuilt butts and legs.

I couldn't be happier with where my life's at right now. I have great partners, I have great stimulating relationships on the business side of things, I've been really busy and productive.

People in the U.S. will watch anything if it's put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what's possible, more than anything.

When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's better to ski fast.
