If I won a second Olympic title, maybe I would be tempted to go after a third.

I come into these competitions to win, not to get silver or bronze, so it is frustrating.

To finish off this whole Olympics by finally getting the gold medal, it's the best feeling in the world.

I've learned that winning isn't everything, and it's more about the journey. But at the end of the day, I just want to stand on the podium with the gold medal.

If I win the Olympics in Rio, then I'll have each title in double.

I'm going into my first Olympics, whereas people I'm racing against are going into their third and fourth and probably last Olympics. So there's more pressure on them to perform. I've still got a whole future ahead of me. I am not even the Olympic champ.

I've been to three Olympics and I don't feel I've ever quite achieved my best at any of them.

In the '80 Olympics... people expected me to win. I was good enough to win, and I made a mistake and ended up second, which is pretty good, too.
