My Mom Used To Tell Me When

To Win Olympic Gold It Takes A Lot Of Hardwork, A Lot Of Passion, A Lot Of Sacrifices.

For Me Going Down In History Being The First Black American To Win The Gold, I Think More Colored People Are Going To Start Coming To The Gymnastics World And Say 'okay, Anything Is Possible. If Gabby Did It, Then I Can Do It Too.'

Nothing Is Going To Change. I’m Going To Wear My Hair Like This During Beam And Bar Finals. You Might As Well Stop Talking About It.

I Kind Of Do Think Of Myself As A Superhero And Just Flying High, And Doing These Crazy Flips.

It's Very Tough For Me To Focus. I'm Like: 'look, Something Shiny! No, Focus. Oh, There Goes A Butterfly!'
