Records Are Made To Be Broken.

I'm Pretty Lazy. My Wife Always Says, "you're The Laziest, Most Successful Olympian I've Ever Seen." How Does That Make Sense? Honestly, If I Have Downtime, I'm Really, Really Good At Not Doing Anything.

I Consider Myself Normal. I've Spent 20 Years In The Pool. I Consider That Something That's Normal.

Our Time On Earth Is Already Short Enough. For Me, It's Like Every Single Day I Try To Be As Happy As I Can. It's Crazy To Think About. We Never Have Enough Time. That's Always The Thing. We Always Want To Do More. So It's About Being Able To Spend Time On The Things That Are Most Important To You. Life Is A Lot Easier That Way, And Obviously Life Is Pretty Difficult A Lot Of The Time.

My Mom Never Really Pushed Me Into Doing Something. It Was Kind Of Whatever I Wanted To Do, And That Was What Made Me Continue And Have The Longevity That I Had In My Career. I Went Through Ups And Downs In The Pool When I Loved It And When I Hated It.

My Strategy Is That I Actually Have Absolutely No Strategy.
