More quotes by Michael Phelps
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
You can't put a limit on anything. The more you dream, the farther you get.
Michael Phelps
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.
Michael Phelps
If I want to achieve the goals I've set, I've got to be in tip-top shape.
Michael Phelps
I don't like to be second in anything. I was trying, I just wasn't going anywhere.
Michael Phelps
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
I try to separate my personal life from swimming.
Michael Phelps
I want to be able to look back and say, 'I've done everything I can, and I was successful.' I don't want to look back and say I should have done this or that. I'd like to change things for the younger generation of swimmers coming along.
Michael Phelps
I've always been fortunate in that I've been able to put myself in my own zone and relax. It comes naturally. I'm lucky to be that way
Michael Phelps
Being able to do something that's never been done before, that's what I've always wanted to do. . . . There was nothing that was going to stand in my way of being the first.
Michael Phelps
When you use your imagination anything can happen.
Michael Phelps
I always have on my headphones to block out all of the other distractions and I'm just focused on doing the best that I can.... There a few of them ... DMX Party Up ... Mack 10 BC and Ice Cube Connected for Life. I also listen to the Eminem CD ...whichever song really gets me going that night
Michael Phelps
I'm the same kind of guy before all this happened.
Michael Phelps
I think the biggest things I am looking forward to is getting new faces into the sport. Getting kids who could be afraid of water to feel comfortable in the pool.
Michael Phelps
I would visualize the best- and worst-case scenarios. Whether I get disqualified or my goggles fill up with water or I lose my goggles or I come in last, I'm ready for anything.
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
I wanted to do something nobody ever did. This goes hand in hand with my goal of changing swimming.
Michael Phelps
Once I retire, I'm retiring. I'm done.
Michael Phelps
Nothing is impossible. With so many people saying it couldn't be done, all it takes is an imagination.
Michael Phelps
My strategy is that I actually have absolutely no strategy.
Michael Phelps
