“We all have skills, I guess.”

I think I’m teaching my teammates that they can still be successful while having fun and enjoying the moment rather than being a stone cold brick.

There are goals that I have, and then I dream of it, and then I make it a reality. If I could crawl out of my skin and see it, it would be really amazing.

I feel like it’s harder because everyone knows I’m the three-time world champion – it’s almost like people are waiting for something bad to happen.

The floor exercise is a way to express your personality.

Stay healthy, have fun with it, and embrace all the moments. Because anything can happen.

You can’t get too caught up in yourself.

My parents make sure we have everything we need so that we compete to the best of our abilities.

For me, I don’t think about size – I focus more on being powerful and confident.

As athletes, we’re always going to have aches and pains, but when your teammates cheer you on, you don’t think about it.

I never thought about competing in the Olympic Games when I was growing up.

The support down here in Rio has been amazing – between my family, Team U.S.A. and Team Kellogg’s, I’ve felt so much love. This whole experience has been a dream come true.

I think for me, the most fun competition that I’ve had was my first Worlds.

At some point, I’ll have to go get a real job.

I love a good Netflix binge!

Sometimes I hear the crowd cheering, and most of the time your body’s on auto pilot, so sometimes even after I do a floor routine, I’m like, ‘Did I really just do that?’

We’ve always had each other’s backs in and out of competition. We support each other the most because we’re the only ones that know what it’s like to go through what we do, and so we can’t be more thankful for each other. We’re like sisters.

Be patient because success is gifted to those who do not rush their destiny.

The most gifted natures are perhaps also the most trembling.

With everything that has happened to you, you can either feel sorry for yourself or treat what has happened as a gift. Everything is either an opportunity to grow or an obstacle to keep you from growing. You get to choose.

The liberty of the individual is no gift of civilization. It was greatest before there was any civilization.

Love is always bestowed as a gift – freely, willingly and without expectation. We don’t love to be loved; we love to love.

Your talent is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.

Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.

Love, to be really love, has to be being-love, gift-love.
