“I always loved pretending I was a fish or a mermaid while swimming in ...” — Jessica Long Quote

I always loved pretending I was a fish or a mermaid while swimming in my grandparents' pool.

Maybe it's part of being an athlete, but I feel like we're really good, especially in swimming, about just pushing things down and pushing ahead.

I always said, as soon as I stopped loving this sport is when I probably will retire.

There was a time I used to focus on just being skinny, and now I really think about how can I be strong.

One of the very first fashion features where I appeared without my prosthetic legs was in ELLE magazine's publication, 'Gold Rush.'

I was born to a single mom and raised by her and my grandparents.

My grandparents lived in Hollywood, and I was surrounded by the romanticism of movies ever since I was a child.

I guess the most seminal moment going early way back was my father died when I was 3 years old. I was raised by my grandparents, and my mother went back and got a degree.

My movies should be such that kids, grandparents and parents are able to watch it together.

My grandparents had 15 children, my parents had 2 children and I won't be having any child.
