More quotes by Apolo Ohno
I rolled the second car that I ever owned, a Toyota 4 Runner. This was winter in Colorado, two weeks before the 2002 Olympic trials. I was driving in the outside lane, and my rear tire caught some black ice, and we totally turned sideways to the point where we were heading right toward the median.

I know exactly what I'm doing on the ice, and I'm in my element.

It is not up to me whether I win or lose. Ultimately, this might not be my day. And it is that philosophy towards sports, something that I really truly live by. I am emotional. I want to win. I am hungry. I am a competitor. I have that fire. But deep down, I truly enjoy the art of competing so much more than the result.

I love to shop. Clothes, electronics, and I love jewelry, especially yellow gold.

I was always active as a child. My dad tried to place me in every sport imaginable. I had so much energy, he wanted to push me in a direction where that energy was used appropriately to keep me out of trouble and focused while I was in school.

It's just a goatee. That sounds kind of weird. A soul patch? I don't know how 'soul' it is.

On the ice, if I slow down, I can coast behind somebody for a couple of laps. If I slow down on the run, it'll turn into a walk.

My father is 100% Japanese and came to the United States when he was only 18 years old. My grandmother still resides in Japan, which has allowed me to travel to the roots of my ancestors with my father.

I think that Subway has shown their own personal commitment as a company and how they believe in healthy choices.

My first car was a Toyota 4Runner when I was 17. I paid for it myself. I was very happy.

I tend to build bulk and muscle easily, and running seems to make sure I stay kind of stringy, if that makes sense.
Apolo Ohno
My dad's great. He's my biggest supporter. He's always told me that whatever I choose to do, I can do it. I just gotta put my mind to it.
Apolo Ohno
I think so many times we focus so much on just the end result when when we finally reach that point we realize that was never the true goal. That was never really what it was all about.

It's an individual sport, but collectively everybody shares the same motto that Ironman stands for: anything is possible.
Apolo Ohno
When there's somebody racing side-by-side, when somebody's right next to me and they're pushing and we're both tired, we're both fatigued, I want to be able to beat them mentally.

I believe my father has and always will be the strongest influence in my life, as he has guided me on many paths.

Music to me is life. It's what gets me going.

Every Olympic athlete prepares differently. For me, I am 100 percent into the sport. And if I decide to really make a crucial career decision to say, 'This is something I want to do,' I want to leave no stone unturned in my preparation.

Be YOU. Don't be someone else. YOU are a unique individual. Be proud... rock it loud.
Apolo Ohno
I can look into someone's eyes and feel like I know her better, versus a phone call, where you can't get that same type of emotion. That's why text messaging gets you in trouble: You can't bond, and emoticons explain only so much.
