When I did get hurt, it was crazy to hear a doctor say that I might never ski again. It really made me take my rehab seriously and take everything more seriously. I couldn`t be more stoked.

We`ve got a lot of momentum, a lot of confidence we`re doing the right stuff because the athletes are showing it, especially in the big championships.

There`s not too many people who could go up to their sponsors and ask them if they can take a year off of competing and just go for a good (film) segment. Thank God that I`ve got good relationships and I`ve kind of proved that I should be able to do what ...

There were mornings when I just didn`t want to get out of bed. But once again, I`m in an adverse situation and having to deal with something new and learn how to do it.

There are times everyone needs to be together for me and we all just work together; making sure that my energy is good and right when I go do what I`m going to do. That means the family needs to spend time together.

The whole image thing gets in the way. Then there are the guys that it excites them and it`s what draws them to me. But I don`t know whether they would care for me if I didn`t have this image.

That feeling is the same whether you`re on either side of the hundredths. Obviously, it`s great to win the world championship, but if you put down that kind of skiing, it`s awesome either way.

People in the U.S. will watch anything if it`s put in front of their face over and over again. I like to see what`s possible, more than anything.

Nobody needs to prove to anybody what they`re worthy of, just the person that they look at in the mirror. That`s the only person you need to answer to.

My knee is as strong as it was before, if not stronger, and it`s a matter of getting my leg strong. I lost six years of strength in about six month`s time, so it`s going to take another year or two to get that leg back up to full strength, but I`m good to...

My brother and Lauren are very close with me and they are in Sun Valley, so sometimes I need to go there and feel their presence. And there are times I need to see my bro` alone.

It is an everlasting desire to make my dreams come true. And it`s getting to the point now where it`s like, come on I want my dreams to come true so that I can get on with the rest of my life. Sometimes I think about the rest of my life when I`m done.

In some ways, that`s the story of my season - when I wasn`t making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.
Bode Miller
I`m social and I meet people and talk to people but I`m not looking for the ideal person to fit my mold and to raise my family with yet. I`m just kind of doing my thing and learning from the people I`m around and who I cross paths with.

I`m hoping that maybe everyone on the Olympic team thinks that I`m worthy to carry the flag. That`s my next goal, to carry the flag during the opening ceremonies, if everyone chooses me.

I wasn`t losing my focus but I was getting tired of focusing. What I was focusing on was becoming too routine, too ritual, not something that was interesting, new and exciting.

I want kids to have a chance to dream of becoming something like I did in my life, and when you`re living in a home that`s dysfunctional and unhealthy that way, you don`t dream like that.
