I won't predict anything historic. But nothing is impossible.
Michael Phelps
I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgment. I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again.
Michael Phelps
The only reason I started swimming was for water safety. Then, once I started falling in love with sports, I got more comfortable with it.
Michael Phelps
If you want to be the best you have to do things that other people aren't willing to do.

You can't put a limit anything.
