We have more than enough wealth and power for those who can enjoy simple pleasures.

I'm not the next Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps. I'm the first Simone Biles.

Friends are better than money. Almost anything money can do， friends can do better. In so many ways a friend with a boat is better than owning a boat.

I'm just a woman. And as a woman， I have no way to make money， not enough to earn a living and support my family. Even if I had my own money， which I don’t， it would belong to my husband the minute we were married. If we had children they would belong to him， not me. They would be his property. So don’t sit there and tell me that marriage isn’t an economic proposition， because it is.
