I'm okay. Russian machine never breaks.

I wear tinted visor not to trick other players, but so hot girls in stands don't see me looking at them

I never look forward. I live for today. If you think about what's going to happen in a year, in two years, then you begin to plan. And plans never come true.

My weapon isn't my shot. It's me.

Nobody ever tells me to give them a pass or anything. My job is to score goals, and if I don't shoot the puck, I can't score goals.

I want to win, I want to win everything. If I have a chance to win, why not?

I don't care what people say about me and what they think about me. I care about my team and I care about myself. Lots of people watch hockey, and I think everybody has different thinking.

If you go to ice and you think, 'I must score' or 'I must get some points,' you won't score or get any points. You must go and play and don't think about it.

Right now I'm scoring goals and I'm the king of the world. And a couple weeks ago I was almost in the toilet. So maybe you just forget to flush me.

My hair was too big. And my head is big, and my hair is big, so my helmet gets too small. So I have to make a haircut.

Hockey is my life, you know. If I do not play hockey, I do not know what I do.

Cats and books are my universe. Both are infinitely fascinating and full of mystery.

I wish you allan ego freedriven day!

I wish airplanes were more like elementary school with someone up front telling everyone to sit down and shut up.

I think a lot of us are multiple things that don't always fit together neatly in a bio box.

I don't know of a great artist who did not sacrifice and thereby have to wrestle with the depths of loneliness and sadness.

I don't like the discussions about whether photography is an art. Even though I think that if it would be just a craft I would not have stayed with it all my life.

If I didn't even stand a chance of winning races and competing for the title, I don't think I would be that interested in continuing my career.

My greatest pleasure is to invent. My continual mad ambition is to make something true and beautiful that never existed in the world before.

I'm a staunch civil libertarian; I really believe that the individual is more important than any societal value.

One response to feeling abandoned is to abandon yourself.
