The 'Sports Illustrated' cover was the last thing I shot. That week I told my agent 'You know what I really... I don't want to be a model anymore. I really want to do movies.' And I think he wanted to wring my neck at the moment.

They wanted me to play more sports because they were acutely sensitive to their children being one hundred percent American and they believed that all Americans played sports and loved sports.

I wanted to be a sportswriter because I loved sports and I could not hit the curve ball the jump shot or the opposing ball carrier.

I wanted to be a doctor in sports medicine I was into sailing and all that sort of thing.

I wanted to play sports my whole life. That's all I really wanted to do.

As a child I was very involved with sports and I knew at age 9 that I wanted to be an Olympic champion.

As a sophomore I wanted to play varsity in three sports. And I accomplished that. It was a great feat that year and something I held special. I wanted to bring a championship team to Oceanside High School and it happened. It was a great year that I will never forget.

I wanted to use sports for social change.

In return society rewards those who give it what it wants. That is why how much money people have earned is a rough measure of how much they gave society what it wanted.

For a long time society put obstacles in the way of women who wanted to enter the sciences.
