It is not the events in our life that define our character, but how we deal with them.

You don't really want to load up a whole lot, probably anything more than four hours before the race. I needed something to make me feel full, but I certainly didn't want it to make me feel stuffed.

You got to get lucky because it lasts for a week and a lot of things can happen in a week.

How much you move affects your strength, your power, your balance, how you look, how you think, how well you withstand the high winds and rain showers of life and how long you will stand. Everyone needs concentrated doses of several kinds of movement to remain functional.

I would recommend anybody who gets a chance to see short track skating, make it a point to go out there when Apolo is skating because you won't see anybody better.

In general, I enjoy athletes who have a strong character who let their abilities speak for themselves.

Sports and politics don't mix.
