I have made enough money to secure my family and that is all I care about.

I missed quite a lot of school because I was working from the age of 11.

If you are ambitious you can have a moment of glory but it will most likely be temporary. But talent always finds its way out.

It's better to be skinny than to be fat.

I was born in Nizhny Novgorod to a very poor family and unfortunately my father and mother separated when I was very little.

If you never know hardship, you can't really support people around you.

The people that live in my hometown do not walk along the street with smiles on their faces. It is a desperate place, but I got out.
