I suddenly said, 'I'm sick of losing'. After that, I trained hard and I never lost there again.

When I was a kid, I looked up to an Olympian superstar. I won't mention his name but when I asked for his autograph he said, 'no.'

These are my shoes that I designed from top to the very sole to the very top to the bottom. Laces.

I try not to read the negative comments, and when I do, I let it roll off my back. I remind myself that there will always be haters as long as you are in the public eye.

I want to be different, and fashion gives me that outlet to do that.

The key to the Lochte haircut is being fresh and looking up-to-date.

I've always been honest with all my kids. So I - if they did well, they did well. And if they didn't, actually, I asked, did you try your best? And if they tried their best, then, you know, I back out because I expect them to be honest with me or with themselves. And I can't make you go out there and work out hard.
