Misty May-Treanor

I don't want to be put on a pedestal. I want to be known as a nice and normal person, but my skills are a little more excelled.

I would like to instill in people just to work hard. As long as they keep at it, their dreams will happen.

I'm stronger than I think I am. Mentally, physically.

If I can add, say, 10 great new violin concertos to the repertoire before I'm done, that will be truly exciting.

People say, 'Where do you live?' and I say that theoretically, I live in London, but basically that's just where I go to change my suitcase. Otherwise, I'm always flying somewhere.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
