I've always spoken my mind and from the heart.
I want to inspire other young kids, no matter what their background is or where they're from or anything like that, that they can go out there and, if you work hard, you can do anything.
When you're not hiding anything, it's just very easy to be yourself - shockingly.
I think I've shown the world I'm a fierce competitor, yes. But I've also shown them that I'm a fierce human being.
I'm like a witch! You can't kill me!
If you ever have the option, come to the Olympics. It's, like, a fun time.
Sometimes I'll be listening to NPR at the gym, and I'll hear them say, 'Oh, Donald Trump did this today.' And I'm like, 'What?' All of a sudden, I have more energy than if I drank an espresso.
Chris Martin has this voice that resonates through a whole arena.
I'm confident in who I and what I'm doing.
I can't explain witchcraft.
I don't want my Olympic experience to be about Mike Pence. You know, I want it to be about my amazing skating and being America's sweetheart.
I'm really go-with-the-flow, but I take things really seriously. At the same time, when things don't go my way, I don't ever freak out. Why? Why freak out?
I usually finish things in the last second. But I think, as I've gotten older, I don't worry about it, and I just rock it.
I've used my sense of humor as a coping tool. It's gotten me through a lot of challenging times.
It might come off as cocky, but I've been through a lot in my life.
I'm proud of a lot of things I've said on Twitter.
Representing the U.S.A. is one of the greatest honors of my life, and being able to do it as my authentic self makes it all so much sweeter.
I really brought that with me: that people think gay people are disgusting... I remember thinking, 'Okay, I might be gay. But I won't tell anybody. Nobody will ever know.'
I realize now that it's important that I share my story... Also, it'll be easy for me to do an interview, to interact with people.
For such a long time in my life, I didn't trust my own voice at all. I always tried to do what other people wanted.
