More quotes by Hope Solo
I don't need a captain's band to lead a team to victory.
Hope Solo
One thing I've learned in life is that I can speak for myself, that I can fight my own battles. I don't like anyone telling me how I'm supposed to feel or think or what I'm supposed to say.
Hope Solo
My entire purpose is trying to be the best in the game, and if that exudes beauty too, that's pretty powerful.
Hope Solo
There are so many different walks of life, so many different personalities in the world. And no longer do you have to be a chameleon and try and adapt to that environment - you can truly be yourself.
Hope Solo
L.A. is a bit strange. It doesn't seem like the real world.
Hope Solo
Growing up, I felt insecure about my build. I didn't feel very feminine. But as time went on, I learned to completely embrace my body.
Hope Solo
I try to live my life one day at a time, and if I look too far in advance, I get really stressed.
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
I have no personal beef with Brandi Chastain. There's nothing personal.
Hope Solo
My father was never around. But I glorified my father, and I was always daddy's little girl. He was my first soccer coach.
Hope Solo
Unfortunately, people think I'm negative and bitter all the time, and that's not the case.
Hope Solo
There are no shortcuts. If you feel good, you'll look good, you'll play good. Work hard every day. No matter what your strengths and weaknesses, there's no substitute for hard work.
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
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.
Hope Solo
I never go on Facebook! I like, haven't confirmed anybody to be my friend on Facebook. I have lots of friends I'm just really bad at Facebook.
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 think people who don't have conflict in their lives are just trying to please people and not really living life to the fullest.
Hope Solo
I've learned that winning isn't everything, and it's more about the journey. But at the end of the day, I just want to stand on the podium with the gold medal.
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.
Hope Solo
My life is a beautiful struggle.
