Sacrifices are not in vain. At the end, everything will pay off.

Serena Williams [ispires me]. The first time I met her, she was like, "We should hang out and go to dinner," and I'm like, "Uh, yeah! If you insist."

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

To win Olympic gold it takes a lot of HARDWORK, a lot of PASSION, a lot of SACRIFICES.

I like squirrels. Theyre so adventurous.

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

Words can't even describe how much Olympic medals means to me, because of all the hard work, sacrifice and effort I put in at the gym, and also because of how much my family supported me and sacrificed their dreams for mine. It also means a lot to me, knowing that I became the first African American to win the individual all-around gold medal.
