People in the U.S. will watch anything if it's put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what's possible, more than anything.

More quotes by Bode Miller
From 1999 to 2003 was the peak of equipment in ski racing. Since then, it's all gone in the wrong direction.
Bode Miller
I don't put anything in front of taking ski racing and sports seriously.
Bode Miller
We should tell our kids to just have fun, participate and not get bent on winning or losing. But every coach, when they say that, they say it tongue in cheek, 'Don't worry about winning': If you win I'll get you ice cream, but if you lose I'm going to pout in the car.
Bode Miller
My goal is the same as every year - to not hurt myself.
Bode Miller
Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.
Bode Miller
When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's better to ski fast.
Bode Miller
I had crashes when I was small and Gumby-like that would have killed me now. I would just fly off jumps and go 40 or 50 meters when I was 6 years old - break skis, smash my goggles and get a bloody nose and go crawl inside for a little while and then come back out and ski more in the afternoon.
Bode Miller
I don't care what other people's judgments come down to-I care what my judgments come down to.
Bode Miller
I went through a period at boarding school when my coaches wanted me to switch to snowboarding because they thought I was no good at skiing. I was too skinny. I had terrible technique. They were saying I should be a snowboarder, and luckily, I resisted.
Bode Miller
The way I judge myself is not on how many World Cups I can win in a row.
Bode Miller
I would say most of my style is driven by functionality and comfort.
Bode Miller
When I was little, I spent a lot of time by myself. When other kids were in school, I was skiing and thinking about things. I was alone on the mountain.
Bode Miller
I've been myself my whole life.
Bode Miller
Some of them I probably would like. Some of my fans probably beat their wives or run over little kids and they just happen to watch me on TV and like the way I ski. Obviously I clearly wouldn't like that person if I knew 'em better.
Bode Miller
I tried retiring a couple of times and it just didn't really stick so, but at some point enough things conspire together and it does stick.
Bode Miller
There's so many guys skiing so fast right now that you really have to be willing to take a lot of risks if you want to give yourself a chance to win. I'm prepared to do it it's just a matter of if I can make it work.
Bode Miller
You feel the Olympics and you get chills and nervous and a little scared. You go through the emotional roller coaster at what it's like to compete at the Olympic level and you let that run through your whole body.
Bode Miller
Sometimes I'm disciplined, but I like to be a total slacker, too. I party hard, but I train hard.
Bode Miller
If I could wish one thing for anyone, it would be to not have to do anything his entire life-just go along and when you feel like doing something, do it.
Bode Miller
It's nice, being brought up with no money at all. It's just not how I measure success, so that makes it a bunch easier.
