I would love to be working in a hospital or in a completely different realm, working with or exploring the lives of animals.

I always carry my phone with me. I always have a computer on me.

Team U.S.A. is awesome.

My parents always wanted the very best for me and pushed me further and further, so that stuck with me.

I have a very close family. I have four older siblings: two brothers and two sisters.

Ever since I started skating, making the Olympic team was my ultimate dream. It's what has inspired and motivated me throughout my entire career.

I start in the morning with something like a breakfast burrito and a smoothie, something that gives me enough protein and carbs to start my day.

There's a lot of skaters that I look up to, and I think my biggest skating role models were the two Russian competitors at the 2002 Olympic games in Salt Lake City. They really motivated me to follow my passion in skating, and it really blossomed from there.

When I watch my skating when I was younger, I definitely see all this balletic movement and this artistry come through.

I remember being a little kid walking down the grocery aisle seeing athletes on these cereal boxes.

Like my parents taught me, never give up, and always love what you do.

Every day is a new day, and ultimately, I have to figure out what works each day.

Every day's a new day.

Never give up. There are always tough times, regardless of what you do in anything in life. Be able to push through those times and maintain your ultimate goal.

It's crazy how fast time flies and how things progress.

Nothing worse than walking out in a Test match and finding your hand slipping on the handle.

I can't pick up a pair of new gloves like Alec Stewart or Mike Atherton. I have to get them sweaty and loose, and put extra stuff on my gloves to protect the fingers.

I feel, as a captain, that when you face a batsman who plays spin well you feel as if you are a fielder short.

If we are going to win games, we need 11 fit players. Sir Alex Ferguson does not pick half-fit players.

If you are not 100 per cent, Virender Sehwag or Chris Cairns will destroy you.

If a player sits out a tour, it is not a problem, because it is a chance to look at others.

You have to try to move your feet and get to the pitch to hit the spinners away.

You travel the world and you talk to people about Jos Buttler, and they rave about this lad. I don't like massive comments, but he'd have to be up there with the three or four greatest white-ball players of all time. You're talking Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, MS Dhoni, Viv Richards.

Sometimes you don't realise what you've got, because it's right in front of you.
