I'll always use the negativity as more motivation to work even harder and become even stronger.

You and I were created by God to be so much more than normal…Following the crowd is not a winning approach to life. In the end it’s a loser’s game, because we never become who God created us to be by trying to be like everybody else.

We have to humble ourselves and the way you do that is by serving other people.

My passion is kids, more than just kids is underprivileged kids and orphans.

As a competitor and an athlete, you have to believe in yourself. And you have to believe in the people who believe in you.

Success comes in a lot of ways, but it doesn't come with money and it doesn't come with fame. It comes from having a meaning in your life, doing what you love and being passionate about what you do. That's having a life of success. When you have the ability to do what you love, love what you do and have the ability to impact people. That's having a life of success. That's what having a life of meaning is.

Athletic ability can be taken away like that. It can all end in a heartbeat.
