    "Definitely, definitely to be standing back up on the podium again, being the top in the all-around finals and also team finals. We want to win that too and also I want to be at the top in the other events like, beams and bars. Definitely grab some gold medals, more than two this time."

    "I look at (the way she competes) and I kind of take that in and I think 'You know what I have to compete that way', so she also teaches me a little bit of the tricks and I think it is going to be great because we both want (to win) and I think we are both going to strive for that. So I think it is going to be a fierce and amazing competition."
