The reason swimming is one of the hardest sports is because you have to be in the pool by yourself every day, making that sacrifice. There's no time to do anything else.

If you want me to swim fast, you have to let me enjoy my life.

I think swimming's hard because I can't float.

Even buying a swimsuit is super difficult. And then making one is even harder.

Swimming is one of the hardest sports.

I want to continue the sport of swimming. I'm not going to give up until I think it's reached where I want it to go.

I'm not gonna be broke, like my mom was broke, my uncles were broke, my sisters didn't have money, my cousins on down.

I try to separate my personal life from swimming.

I want to swim in both directions at once. Desire success, court failure.

I can't imagine what I would be doing if I wasn't swimming. It is what I want to do now; it is what I want to do in the foreseeable future, and that is what I'm focusing on.
