Quote of the Day/Week-Cheryl Miller

Today, we conclude our series of quotes from Americans who won either or both gold and silver medals at the summer games in honor of the upcoming 2012 London Olympics.

Cheryl Miller, 48, a graduate of the University of Southern California, was the star player on the gold medal-winning  women's basketball team at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics.

In 1995, Miller was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass. As a high school senior for Riverside Polytechnic High School in Riverside, Calif., she scored 105 points in one game.

Her younger brother Reggie Miller, who was a standout at UCLA and the Indiana Pacers, said he was flabbergasted when he found out that she had scored some 40 points more than him on a night when he assumed he would be the member of the family making headlines in the local paper the next day.

Here is Cheryl Miller's quote:

"Every plant has to look good for at least two seasons."
