I try to separate my personal life from swimming.
Michael Phelps
Image
I got the stamina. I can close.
Michael Phelps
Image
So, you know, if, if I wanted to get up and just play golf one day, I would just get up and play golf. If I wanted to go to Vegas, I would just get up and go to Vegas.
Michael Phelps
Image
I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and you put the work and time into it. I think your mind really controls everything.
Michael Phelps
Image
Other nights ... I visualize to the point that I know exactly what I want to do: dive, glide, stroke, flip, reach the wall, hit the split time to the hundredth, then swim back again for as many times as I need to finish the race.
Michael Phelps
Image
I want to test my maximum and see how much I can do. And I want to change the world of swimming.
Michael Phelps

You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.

It's tough to put into words right now, but I finished my career how I wanted to. Through the ups and downs of my career I've still been able to do everything that I've ever wanted to accomplish.
Michael Phelps
Image
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.

Image
Before, it came easy for me. I don't have two speeds anymore. I need to focus on the small things that I once took for granted.
Michael Phelps
Image
When you use your imagination anything can happen.
Michael Phelps
Image
My mom never really pushed me into doing something. It was kind of whatever I wanted to do, and that was what made me continue and have the longevity that I had in my career. I went through ups and downs in the pool when I loved it and when I hated it.
Michael Phelps
Image
I have the opportunity to be part of swimming history. To take the sport to a new level would be an honor for me. There's no better time to try this than now.
Michael Phelps
Image
The one thing that's common to all successful people: They make a habit of doing things that unsuccessful people don't like to do.
Michael Phelps
Image
My strategy is that I actually have absolutely no strategy.
Michael Phelps
Image
It's not how you start, but it's how you finish.
Michael Phelps
Image
What does God mean to me? I guess I was made the way I am for some reason, and I've been able to find the talent I have, and I've been able to use it, so I'm grateful for that. I believe in God [but] I'm not saying I'm highly religious.

Swimming is fun. It's a lot funner than golf.
Michael Phelps
Image
Nothing is impossible. With so many people saying it couldn't be done, all it takes is an imagination.
Michael Phelps
Image
If you want to be the best you have to do things that other people aren't willing to do.
