I love skiing fast. You're going 80 to 85 m.p.h. down an icy slope, and I love it.

I don't know if I'll ever get used to the idea that strangers know who I am. I don't know if I want to.

The history of skiing is important to me.

You are only limited to what you push yourself to, you know? You can always get better.

Medals are decided by hundredths of a second, so I need assurance that my vision is perfect every time I compete, no matter what the conditions.

You can get a big gust of wind, and your Olympics are over.

Unfortunately, we both lead incredibly hectic lives that force us to spend a majority of our time apart. I will always admire and respect Tiger. He and his beautiful family will always hold a special place in my heart.
