It's very tough for me to focus. I'm like: 'Look, something shiny! No, focus. Oh, there goes a butterfly!'

The hard work definitely paid off and hard work always does.

I just want to inspire all those people who gave up and said 'I quit,' Never give up!

The other girls [in team] have experience. They've been competing on a lot of international world-class stages. They knew what to expect and what to do and what not to do. Me and Aly [Raisman] just gave them advice on the media side. We said, it's gonna be crazy. It's the Olympics. But it's gonna be fun!

Let all that I am praise the LORD; may I never forget the good things he does for me.

I wear makeup pretty much every day. For training, I usually do a lighter base, a lighter blush and I used the mascara and a little bit of the lip gloss.

I think I would go for a Michael Phelps kind of guy.
