First do it, then say it.

I have spoken with many former athletes, and they tell me the best time they had was in sports. I listen to them and use their experience in my career.

I am alone, some people help me, but, basically, I can do what I want.

The Olympics are always a special competition. It is very difficult to predict what will happen.

I think that, generally, you need to live with your sport 24 hours a day.

Often you need to take some risk, but it must be a realistic risk, you can't take a crazy risk.

Even now, I want to keep my amateur spirit, to spend my time, to be in the sport with all my heart.
