"My mom & I still joke about the fact I had a middle school teacher who said I would never be successful. Nothing is impossible. With so many people saying it couldn't be done, and that's something I learned and something that helped me," that's what Michael Phelps said matter of factly. He did a great effort. Good on him for winning. He was the better competitor in this year Olympics. The greatest Olympian of all time- Michael Phelps of USA!
