I don't fear anything.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I would accomplish what I have in the sport

I will remember all the days at the Olympics.

I don't remember the first time I skated on ice, I was too young. I do remember falling in love with that wind-in-my-face feeling while speed skating.

There's sort of a theory that's going around in the China-watching community about a perfect storm coming up with the 2008 Olympics, a U.S. election and a Taiwanese election, some sort of mutually reinforcing explosion and crisis.

Winning doesn't always mean being first.

It's sad to know I'm done. But looking back, I've got a lot of great memories.
