The only disability in life is a bad attitude.

I was more interested in skating and the girls and traveling than I was in calculus.

And so figure skating was a great vehicle for me to kind of be competitive at something, without having to be big.

Memories just get richer with time.

So as an amateur Olympic competitor I loved criticism, because it made me better. But now as a professional I don't really know how to channel it or where to take it, so I don't take it quite as well.

Refined indifference is a sports psychology precept: train like there's no tomorrow and then accept whatever happens. Once you step on the field realize that whatever is meant to be is meant to be.

A bad attitude is the only true handicap.
