What good is it to have wind-powered lights to brighten the night if you can't see... Thomas Friedman
God, I scream for time to let go, to write, to think. But no. I have to exercise my memory in little feats just so I can stay in this damn wonderful place which I love and hate with all my heart. And so the snow slows and swirls, and melts along the edges. The first snow isn't good for much.

I don't like bungee jumping, but I do like skiing. Roger Moore
I was hospitalized five times in 2011 because of my skiing. Fracturing my left shoulder twice, snapping my anterior cruciate ligament once and smashing my scapula into five pieces. Heather Mills
I have a very basic leg. But it has a silicon cover on it. I have a flat foot leg, a high heel leg and then I have a leg which, in the winter, I have to ski in and in the summer I swap it into my roller blades. Heather Mills
Bode Miller quote: "When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's..."
When you back off, it's easier to do mistakes. For me it's better to ski fast. Bode Miller
That feeling is the same whether you're on either side of the hundredths. Obviously, it's great to win the world championship, but if you put down that kind of skiing, it's awesome either way. Bode Miller
Bode Miller quote: "Sometimes it's all about the win, sometimes it's about the..."
Sometimes it's all about the win, sometimes it's about the skiing. Bode Miller
Obviously, you always want to win, but you want to win by skiing a race that you're proud of and you feel like you really challenged yourself and left it all out there. Bode Miller
My team has been very unreceptive about the fact that I consistently show them that I train slightly differently than they do, that I consistently show them that I am in better shape for ski racing than anyone else on the team. Bode Miller
