“I have to feel good about what I'm endorsing because I have to live with it.” — Mitch Gaylord

I don't want to be considered a gymnast anymore.

As a competitor, you have to learn pretty quickly how to deal with pressure.

The greatest memory for me of the 1984 Olympics was not the individual honors, but standing on the podium with my teammates to receive our team gold medal.

You try and learn from some people's mistakes. But you have to really trust the people who are working for you because they make a lot of decisions that could either do well for you or really screw up your image.
