“I feel like I’m small and mighty and pack a powerful punch, just like Tide PODS.”

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.

I just keep surprising myself, I guess.

I have everything I need, so there are no blanks left unfilled.

Most of our fans don’t get to interact with us or know our personalities except through social media.

I was missing out on public school and going to the football games, prom or homecomings. But I’ve been to three World Championships. So I think it’s like a win-win.

When we had free time in the Olympic Village, we got massages and rested while watching Netflix.

Picking five favorite books is like picking the five body parts you’d most like not to lose.

The soul is the effect and instrument of a political anatomy; the soul is the prison of the body.

Feeling, the strength of the roots beneath my body I stand here planted in the soil of all that came before me and all that will follow.

Bodies are real entities. Surfaces and lines are but fictitious entities. A surface without depth, a line without thickness, was never seen by any man; no; nor can any conception be seriously formed of its existence.

If only were my skin like art shining against the mould, if only my body were a canvas brave if only.

When will the leaves begin to change in this body of mine?

They called me a lost cause but I’m not the boy I once was I’ve paid full price for each mistake now I know, how much this body can take.

My pent-up passion seeped out like gas from a leaky stove, your touch was the spark I needed to set my body on fire.
