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
Sometimes I'm disciplined, but I like to be a total slacker, too. I party hard, but I train hard.
Bode Miller
I've been myself my whole life.
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
Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.
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
My goal is the same as every year - to not hurt myself.
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
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
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
One kid's old, used-up equipment is another kid's brand-new, awesome, awesome equipment.
Bode Miller
It does matter that it's the Olympics. I just did it my way. I'm not a martyr, and I'm not a do-gooder. I just want to go out and rock. And man, I rocked here.
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
I still love racing and the challenge of it, but at some point, you get to a place where you're perfectly happy moving on and doing other stuff.
Bode Miller
In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.
Bode Miller
Despite all the pressure and the caliber of accomplishment, I still can honestly say that it's not all about winning.
Bode Miller
I don't care what other people's judgments come down to-I care what my judgments come down to.
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.
Bode Miller
I like to keep my private life private for the most part.
Bode Miller
I think four Olympics is probably enough. Five Olympics is a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that if I'm into it and I'm healthy and my priorities can fit around that.
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.
