You're going to make mistakes in life. It's what you do after the mistakes that counts.

I'm loving motherhood. It's way harder than soccer, but I love a challenge.

I think there are a lot of things that soccer does in the communities that transcend the soccer field.

I think Id like to be able to heal peoples pain, whether it is hunger, loneliness or whatever.

After the '96 Olympics, we all started believing that this is bigger than we thought, and we were willing to do the work. We knew that it was up to us, the players, to make soccer successful.

I was the kid who always liked to take the ball down to the school even in my free time, kick it against the wall, juggle it in the front yard and so it was kind of a perpetual state of playing soccer for me.

You're just trying to be yourself, and for me, playing soccer is being myself. One day, you're one person on a team. The next thing people are asking your opinion about things you're not an expert on. Because they recognize you, they think you must know something about something - which isn't necessarily the case.
