I am a great realist in all aspects of life. Whatever I can do ... here it is.

Life is marvelous now because I have a tape recorder.

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

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

And I suggested to change very simple way to Olympic Games, in one competition, two different levels. Separate from, until sixteen, and after sixteen years old.

Don't be afraid if things seem difficult in the beginning. That's only the initial impression. The important thing is not to retreat; you have to master yourself.

I think I spent all my life in gymnastics. And if you will ask me I want to change something in your past life, no. I will go same.
