Quote

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.

At this point in my career, I have the privilege of choosing my partners. In the beginning, you more or less take what comes in the door - or what matches up with your brand. But you're always subject to what's available, especially in the ski world where there are not infinite choices, especially on the fashion side.

Once the season starts for me, there isn't a change in my focus, just a change in my tactics and strategies.

I don't care what other people's judgments come down to-I care what my judgments come down to.

My goal is the same as every year - to not hurt myself.

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.

Despite all the pressure and the caliber of accomplishment, I still can honestly say that it's not all about winning.

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.

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.

At the end of the day, you have to make sure you're at least listening to what your head is telling you, what your heart is telling you. That's hard to do when there are a million other people shouting as loud as they can.

Image
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.

I couldn't be happier with where my life's at right now. I have great partners, I have great stimulating relationships on the business side of things, I've been really busy and productive.

One kid's old, used-up equipment is another kid's brand-new, awesome, awesome equipment.

Sometimes I'm disciplined, but I like to be a total slacker, too. I party hard, but I train hard.

It is not that I don't recognize the danger in ski racing, but that I don't fear the consequences.

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.

When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's better to ski fast.

The best way to protect your own freedom is to watch everybody else's back. That's the essence of community.

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.

The way I judge myself is not on how many World Cups I can win in a row.
