If I work on a certain move constantly, then finally, it doesn't seem risky to me. The idea is that the move stays dangerous and it looks dangerous to my foes, but it is not to me. Hard work has made it easy.

I believe that you should gravitate to people who are doing productive and positive things with their lives.

Romanians have a saying, 'Not every dog has a bagel on its tail.' It means that not all streets are paved with gold. When I began my career, I just wanted to do cartwheels.

We are not coaching on a daily basis because we often travel with our charity and commercial interests.

I worked hard in gymnastics since the time I was six years old until I retired at 23 years of age.

Of course, I grew up in Communist Romania, but I am happy to say that now our country is democratic, and prospering, since the revolution in 1989.

Work hard for your goals and live in the moment.
