Every time I reach a major milestone in my career, I expect it to make more of a difference than it does, and I guess that means I'm in the sport for the right reasons. I'm not in it to win it because winning can only last for so long, and it's a very fickle thing, sport.

I think fathers were put on Earth to embarrass their daughters.

You know, there are people making a lot of money in this country who can actually afford their own health care.
