I never lost a freestyle race. Never. Not even in the YMCA.

Can you imagine - a blond Tarzan?

With but few exceptions, it is always the underdog who wins through sheer willpower.

I need freedom to be happy.

When people don't know me any more or want my autograph, then I'll think about retiring.

I could make good time because I was so long and skinny, shooting through the water like a stick.

I learned to yodel pretty well. It took me a few months, but I eventually perfected it.
