If there has not been such a thing as gymnastics, I would have had to invent it because I feel at one with the sport.

But let me do I will show the world what gymnastics looks like. Well may be this is a future gymnastics.

Thank god, and now all I have are, twenty one years together, in January and, you know, I, you know I forgot this all about things. And anyway the first place is good thing.

Anyway I will go same road because I, I was born in gymnastics. This is my, how to say, my life and my duty.

I've never wanted to be anything but a gymnast. Maybe it is dangerous-but when you start thinking about danger, you might as well give up.

The important thing is not to retreat; you have to master yourself.

I am not interested in medals or titles. I dont need them. I need the love of the public and I fight for it.
