More quotes by Hope Solo
My father showed me so much love. He showed my brother so much love.
Hope Solo
My family doesn't do happy endings. We do sad endings or frustrating endings or no endings at all. We are hardwired to expect the next interruption or disappearance or broken promise.

I've had marriage proposals, invitations to military balls and even a few prom offers from 18-year-old boys.
Hope Solo
My father showed me so much love. He showed my brother so much love. He just, he had a rough life. You know, he grew up in a boys home in the Bronx. He didn't really know his own family. So I couldn't hold it against him that he didn't know how to parent. He didn't know how to be the perfect husband. But he loved as much as he could.

Hope Solo
I need a life outside of soccer. So I very much welcome, you know, new love interests and dating and friends and family.
Hope Solo
I don't just want to focus on soccer, soccer, soccer. You're going to look back 20 years from now and of course you're going to remember the games. But I'm going to remember seeing my family in the stands.
Hope Solo
My life goes in four-year cycles. The World Cup is every four years and the Olympics are every four years.
Hope Solo
When I was younger, I was a complete tomboy. Then in college I started emerging out of the tomboy stage and dressing differently.
Hope Solo
It's all in fun. I take everything with a grain of salt.
Hope Solo
You're always going to survive the pain of loss. I can live with that confidence inside of me.
Hope Solo
I never felt the same passion for the game in the States and there were a lot of headaches, a lot of obstacles to overcome - it didn't just run itself for the love of the game because soccer is not the No. 1 sport as it is in Europe.
Hope Solo
I have a problem with players who don't take the loss personally. At a professional level you should - it's our job, it's our livelihood, it's who we are at this level. Every loss should be taken that personal.
Hope Solo
In front of the world, all of a sudden I'm a great athlete and I'm put into an environment with 25 other women and I'm expected to go to team meals, team functions.
Hope Solo
It took putting one foot in front of the other every single day to get through it to the point where I made it back on the team and won a gold medal in 2008.

My father was never around. But I glorified my father, and I was always daddy's little girl. He was my first soccer coach.
