The rite of passage of learning to build a fire that will burn all night with one match is not an insignificant one in my husband's family, and I grew up camping and backpacking. I love to camp.

I'd like to be able to light the fire a little bit.

You get the best effort from others not by lighting a fire beneath them, but by building a fire within.

I love fire. As a child I loved setting light to things. I'd always be in the forest putting matches to pieces of wood. I've always regarded fire as my friend.

No matter what I'm doing, I'm training. I'm training every day and I think that's something I won't lose - no matter what I do, no matter what event I'm at, I always find a way to train. It's just something that I love to do.

My normal routine is pretty much putting out fires all day.

Contentment consist not in adding more fuel, but in taking away some fire.

I'm producing more, but I think to direct, one has to have a burning desire, and that's not me. I'd rather do something else.

Sometimes you get the best light from a burning bridge.
