Going out there in the water, it feels as if there's nothing wrong with me.

I go out there and train as hard as anybody else.

I say, 'If I'm able to go out there and achieve a dream, then anybody can do it.'

When you are racing in an able-bodied competition, you're all equal and you go out there and try your best, and that's what counts.

I am always late because people stop me for autographs and say hi.

Even when bad things happen you have to try to use those bad things in a positive manner and really just take the positive out of it.
