Hard work has made it easy. That is my secret. That is why I win.

The only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your feet.

I know how to smile, I know how to laugh, I know how to play. But I know how to do these things only after I have fulfilled my mission.

You should also appreciate the goodness around you, and surround yourself with positive people.

I believe that you should gravitate to people who are doing productive and positive things with their lives.

Hard work has made it easy. That is my secret. That is why I win.

I hoped to win a medal and hoped it would be gold. I knew I was good but didn't know I would be the one to score something that had never been done before.
