Apolo Ohno Quotes

Did you do every single thing you could today, to be your best? Picture Quote #1

I wanted to go back on ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ I did it. One of my favorite shows is ‘Hawaii Five-0.’ I went on, guest starred. I wanted to be in a film, did ‘Tasmanian Devils’ in Vancouver. Wanted to host a show, boom, did it Picture Quote #1

It’s important to be driven and have goals. You want an independent woman who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to go after it. It’s attractive to me when a woman is doing what she loves. It makes me want to know more Picture Quote #1

It’s about having an active lifestyle, staying healthy, and making the right decisions. Life is about balance. Not everybody wants to run a marathon, but we could all start working out and being active, whether you walk to work or take an extra flight of stairs Picture Quote #1

I want to break into the acting industry. It’s something I have a great deal of respect for; it’s a passion of mine. It’s so amazing, the differences between acting and being an athlete, but the one commonality is they both evoke emotion in the viewer. And those emotions are real. So I think that’s pretty cool Picture Quote #1

My father is 100% Japanese and came to the United States when he was only 18 years old. My grandmother still resides in Japan, which has allowed me to travel to the roots of my ancestors with my father Picture Quote #1

Don't look back you're not going that way

A true friend is someone who accepts your past, supports your present and encourages your future

My mantra has always been to have zero regrets in life. Everything I do at one speed, I go all-out Picture Quote #1

Japan, not only a mega-busy city that thrives on electronics and efficiency, actually has an almost sacred appreciation of nature. One must travel outside of Tokyo to truly experience the ‘old Japan’ and more importantly feel these aspects of Japanese culture Picture Quote #1

Be YOU. Don’t be someone else. YOU are a unique individual. Be proud... rock it loud Picture Quote #1

My ‘go to’ workout is called the Asylum from Beach Body. It’s intense training with lots of intervals, core work. It’s hard! I travel a lot, so I can take it on the road with me and do it in a hotel room Picture Quote #1

When I look at my life now and all the mistakes I’ve made, all the bad decisions I’ve made, all the things I could have done differently or done more in, I don’t think I would have changed anything Picture Quote #1

I rolled the second car that I ever owned, a Toyota 4 Runner. This was winter in Colorado, two weeks before the 2002 Olympic trials. I was driving in the outside lane, and my rear tire caught some black ice, and we totally turned sideways to the point where we were heading right toward the median Picture Quote #1

A year from now you'll wish you started today

Together is my favorite place to be

I never had one day that I didn’t want to be on the ice, because I always had an objective for that day. I had a rigorous plan and schedule in place that I had to adhere to. It was a step-by-step process of slowly but surely inching toward the Olympic Games and using every day as a series of goals to be accomplished Picture Quote #1

I know that BMW is now a sponsor of the USOC - of the United States Olympic Committee - so they offer the use of their aerodynamic speed-tunnel for testing and such for the athletes, which is a great advantage. But to be honest with you, I’d rather have a free car! Picture Quote #1

I have a scar on my left thigh, kind of almost near my knee. I essentially fell in the 2002 Olympics and when I hit the wall - because of the impact - my right leg kind of came in at like a knife-type angle and stabbed my leg with my own skate blade Picture Quote #1

I am a believer in nutrient timing and supplementation, through 8Zone. I love eggs, apples, wild fish, leafy greens, brown rice, pasta, oatmeal, home grown Washington Potatoes, and cooking with coconut and olive oils Picture Quote #1

Every Olympic athlete prepares differently. For me, I am 100 percent into the sport. And if I decide to really make a crucial career decision to say, ‘This is something I want to do,’ I want to leave no stone unturned in my preparation Picture Quote #1

Do I feel any pressure as the most decorated Winter Olympian in American history? None at all. The only pressures that I know I face are those of how to pay it forward: How can I continually make a positive impact in people’s lives, help others achieve their dreams, create their own Olympic mindset, creating champions within themselves? Picture Quote #1

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken

Being a competitor, you always believe you can come back. I’ll be up at 3 in the morning watching World Cup races in my hotel whether I’m in Asia on a business trip or in New York City and have to get up in 2 hours Picture Quote #1

All the suits I buy have to be tailored, no matter what. But it’s not just because of my height; it’s because I’ve been skating for so long. My waist is very small, but my legs are just huge. Most really nice suit makers are Italian, and usually they make suit pants for Italian men. I’m like, ‘Those Italians must have pretty skinny legs.’ Picture Quote #1

I think so many times in our society we focus so much on just the end result; when we finally reach that point we realize that was never the true goal Picture Quote #1

We all naturally want to become successful... we also want to take shortcuts. And it’s easy to do so, but you can never take away the effort of hard work and discipline and sacrifice Picture Quote #1

As I grow older, I have a growing curiosity about my other half. My dad did a wonderful job raising me, and I wouldn’t change it for the world, but at the same time there is a growing curiosity about my other half Picture Quote #1

The last thing I want is for people to go through the motions in life. We’re all meant to do different things, but there’s a lot of opportunity for us to do some great things Picture Quote #1

Men go shopping to buy what they need. Women go shopping to find out what they want

I never make the same mistake twice. I make it five or six times, just to be sure

My dad’s great. He’s my biggest supporter. He’s always told me that whatever I choose to do, I can do it. I just gotta put my mind to it Picture Quote #1

I’ve always liked game shows - the competitive aspect and the character-driven personalities you see Picture Quote #1

You’d like people to remember you for these great times on the ice. In reality, you want them to forget because you’re doing something new and better Picture Quote #1

Winning does not always mean coming in first...real victory is in arriving at the finish line with no regrets because you know you’ve gone all out Picture Quote #1

We actually have a small family. It’s just my father and I and my grandmother, who lives in Tokyo. I cherish my friendships Picture Quote #1

I can look into someone’s eyes and feel like I know her better, versus a phone call, where you can’t get that same type of emotion. That’s why text messaging gets you in trouble: You can’t bond, and emoticons explain only so much Picture Quote #1
