My life has been a whirlwind since the '94 Olympics.

And I love what I do and I love skating.

Part of being a champ is acting like a champ. You have to learn how to win and not run away when you lose.

My hobbies are painting, crafts, and I like golfing.

It was never about winning medals or being famous.

There is no age, height, or weight requirement to skate. It is good exercise no matter what your age is. If you want to be competitive, most start young. But, I practice with many adult competitors.

I was a tomboy who liked to play rough just like my two older brothers. That's probably why I liked the athletic part of skating - especially the jumping!

People would ask me why I was doing what I was doing - but I always told them that I just loved to skate. There was no other explanation.

I get to see the different sides of skating now which involves not only competing, but entertainment.

It wasn't always easy getting up at 5 o'clock in the morning to go to the rink. Sometimes I wanted to just go back to sleep.

My dad worked several jobs to pay for my expense in skating.

People keep asking me ...How to instantly become a better writer? It’s simple: Use "power words" and see for yourself.

Money has no country.

If the English can survive their food, they can survive anything.

There are enough women to do the childbearing and the childrearing. I know of none who can write my books.

Yes there were 15 to 20 terrorists. We managed to capture both of them!

Brazil is in a solid position. In the past, if the United States sneezed, we caught pneumonia. Today, if the United States sneezes, we sneeze too.
