Lindsey Vonn

I always channeled what I felt emotionally into skiing - my insecurities, my anger, my disappointment. Skiing was always my outlet, and it worked.

You are only limited to what you push yourself to, you know? You can always get better.

I hate being helpless, and I hate having to ask people to do things for me.

It is soooooo necessary to get the basic skills, because by the time you graduate, undergraduate or graduate, that field would have totally changed from your first day of school.

I think to have the skill set and the ability to physically help others in matters of life and death must be incredibly empowering.
