Gretchen Bleiler
The first few years I was competing, I'd ride so well in practice, then choke and fall in competition. Now I take a deep breath and say, 'Look at me. I'm outside. I'm doing what I love'. Still, nothing's matched the pressure I felt standing at the top of the halfpipe for the first time at the Olympics.

What I am looking for is a blessing not in disguise...When the cat's away...The purpose of human life is to serve...Life is abundant, and life is beautiful...Challenging the meaning of life is the truest expression...All humanity could be piled up on a small Pacific islet...
