Quotes of 1988

Quotes taken from the authors in 1988

I thought I had gotten second, but I didn't, so I was really happy.

Carly Patterson

I guess I'm kind of used to it because it's always been that way for me.

Carly Patterson

The only thing I really, really want is for the U.S. to win again. Just to win another team gold. And, of course I would really want to win an all-around gold.

Carly Patterson

I think it helps me. You know, I've got two more meets under my belt, and that's always a good thing.

Carly Patterson

Well, first I have to make the team, of course.

Carly Patterson

I'm just trying to grow. That's one thing I told myself is, 'Don't worry about who people say is the best player.'

Kevin Durant

People always think women meet us in the hotel lobby, but it's the opposite. The majority of the time, you go out to eat with your teammates, then rest for the next day's game. It's not a vacation - most guys view the road as a business trip.

Kevin Durant

With everything I do, I just try to be myself.

Kevin Durant

I feel good doing it. It's not like guys are stripping me at half-court or I'm just losing the ball dribbling. I think I'm handling the ball pretty well, just trying to make good passes, man.

Kevin Durant

Every memory I had growing up was involving a basketball. I didn't go to the prom and stuff like that. It was always basketball for me.

Kevin Durant

My days shouldn't be hard because I'm doing what I'm doing and that's playing basketball.

Derrick Rose

My whole life has been nothing but trying to find a way to take care of my mom and take care of my family as quickly as possible.

Derrick Rose

Everybody's got their poison, and mine is sugar.

Derrick Rose

All physical activity begins with the body's core. I maintain the strength in my core so that I can jump, run, start, stop, and accelerate at the highest levels.

Derrick Rose

When I was younger, I just thought about playing in the NBA.

Derrick Rose

I won't back down. I get a satisfaction from being tested and defeating the test.

Ashton Eaton

I think a challenge for myself is to see how many times I can get above 9,000. That would be a good challenge.

Ashton Eaton

The desire definitely comes from within. There are only a few people who make it to this level and those are the ones who have that innate desire.

Ashton Eaton

The great thing about this is, and not to pump my own tires, but I feel like I'm not maximized yet. I feel like I can still run faster, jump higher, which I think makes it special. Hopefully, going to London, I'll be welcomed into the decathlon community.

Ashton Eaton

When I see my mom in the stands, it always pushes me to succeed.
