Everybody wants to win.

My reason for coming out isn't to be some sort of hero.

Players don't really ask for much or want much. But the things that they do need are important.

Being gay has nothing to do with the three gold medals or the three MVPs or the four championships I've won. I'm still the same person. I'm Sheryl.

No matter how far life pushes you down, no matter how much you hurt, you can always bounce back.

I'm at a place in my life right now where I'm very happy, very content. I'm finally OK with the idea of who I love, who I want to be with.

...as far as self-discipline goes, it's still ultimately up to me how well I can push myself. Only I can do that. I just have to keep on going, keep on working, keep on improving.
