I'd been ready too, because before Olympic Games, I wasn't compete in big competition like, World Championship, like European Championship. I just competed in national competition.

This is probably why, my life is easier, and my family is very happy, because we never lie each other. This is probably all people supposed to feel each other, so be always in all of the world they'll be peace.

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 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.

And, in nineteen seventy two Olympic Games I wasn't really going to be a star, and overnight I became a star.

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 this is all my life. Because if I was split gymnastics and something else like far, fun or to go with friends. No, this, you're supposed to one go, one straight road and to do every day. And touch the wall, of the goal.
