I had whale tartare when I was in Japan, but I probably wouldn't have it again.

Follow your dreams, work hard, practice and persevere. Make sure you eat a variety of foods, get plenty of exercise and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I'm a competitive person and I love the challenge of mastering new things.

The Olympics is about showing what you've done with your life, your dream as an athlete and sharing that with the World.

A year ago I had a back injury and followed a good nutrition program to help speed up my recovery. I focused on exercise and staying healthy in order to get back out on the ice.

I want to be the first lady to land a quadruple jump in competition. As I grow older, I know that my skating style will develop and mature.

I eat a variety of foods like vegetables, fruit and beef for protein and iron.

My academic schedule is lighter this year because it's an Olympic year.

I worked with my coach to develop some new spiral variations to make my program more interesting. Each one is different and you'll have to wait until January to see them.

I skate about 15 to 20 hours a week and also incorporate a lot of off-ice training. I take ballet and Pilates classes and lift weights with my physical therapist when I'm not on the ice.

Cardio is tough after a day of skating, but with my iPod I can get into the moment and complete the cardio training for the day.

Good thing I'm aging, otherwise I'd be dead.

Love, Imagination and Intuition are the most powerful forces on the planet earth.

Coding is a privilege, but that privilege is not available to most Americans.

The more we devote ourselves to the pursuit of holiness and happiness, the less likely we will be on a path to regrets.

As a seer, I naturally can see the evolutionary potential of a being. But the potential will not necessarily be actualized. A particular being will not necessarily realize their full height.

It gradually dawned upon me that there was no one more difficult to please than my mother.

Don’t think about it. Do it. Don’t talk about it. Do it.

This gets back to the fundamental lesson of political survival that Bill Clinton taught me, which is if you make it about the American people's lives instead of your life, you're going to be okay.
