"I just didn’t want to see myself fall back. I don’t want to disappoint my coaches or my parents."

"I grew up going on that beam. If I wasn't in the gym I was always outside on the beam doing extra things because I didn't want to get behind or I always wanted to get better. It was something we kind of cherished because whenever I was bored, I would just go outside and he [father] would watch me and try and coach me even though he didn't know what he was talking about."

"I was just telling myself to do nothing more and nothing less, and just telling myself to breathe because in that moment I literally felt like I was going to puke, I was so nervous. My normal is good enough, so I don't do anything more or anything less, I just have to do what I normally do."

"I focus more on bars and beam just because those are my strongest events, and I just try and maintain whatever I can do on floor and vault. I'm consistently training on all events. It's just I spend more time on bars and beam. I obviously want to perfect those and get those to be the best that I can be because those are going to be my strongest events and the two events that I could contribute to the team."

""I want to do it for my family and coaches obviously, but I also want to do it for myself. I've just been through so much."

"I'll probably cool down a little bit and just focus on what I need to do especially because we're coming to the end. I want to just do the best I can and end it off good."

"I'm probably going to delete Twitter. Instagram is not as bad because I can't really see what people say, but [on] Twitter it's just so easy to see everything. So I'm probably going to have to end up deleting that."

"There were so many times in my bar routine where I could have just gave up and jumped off but I didn't and now I have a bronze medal. This medal probably means more to be than the all-around gold medal did, just because bars is my thing. To mess it up like this, I was just kind of sad about it."

"I felt like I wanted to make everybody else happy because bars is my thing and a lot of people were rooting for me."

"My community supports me a lot. I don’t want to let them down so I go out and compete for them."

"You just can't get distracted easily. If you're having a bad day you just gotta keep going and you just can't be too hard on yourself."
