When you have won everything in your career, what's left? Why go on?

It's good to ski for fun, but I still want to win races as often as possible.

It was necessary to organize my career to remain at the top level until Salt Lake City.

I sat down with my trainers to check my past seasons and to see what could be done to keep me motivated and in good shape. I had to find a new motivation, a new momentum.

I have a strong lead so far, and I would be proud to win it because it remains the summit for a skier. I also aim to collect several smaller crystal trophies at Are, especially the GS Cup.

My attitude on skis is different now. I have learned to put less pressure on myself and on the edges of my skis when I'm racing, to be keep myself more under control.

When I was a child, all I wanted was to enter the Austrian team and to compete on the World Cup tour. I had to fight hard to reach this. I wanted badly to win each race.

I planned to stop in 2002 after the Salt Lake City Olympics. I felt able to remain competitive another four years, and I wanted to stop while I'm still at the top.

I still have many goals left, especially the Overall World Cup standings.

I lost races because I wanted too much to win them in beating my rivals.

Trust yourself, you know more than you think you do.

The most characteristic mark of a great mind is to choose some one important object, and pursue it for life.

Everyone I've worked with has been good. You learn from the good, what's good, and you learn from the bad what not to do.

By the dharma is meant the heart, for there is no dharma apart from the heart.

You've got to remember, Vermont is a lot of beautiful mountains with valleys and small brooks that run into bigger rivers.

It's only advice. Ignore it if you want.

We should learn to think with our fingers.

When the two that share destiny part and reunite, beyond the frame of time, the ceased clock will awake and start to tick once again.
