I love skating so much and I feel like every time I step out onto the ice, that's what I'm meant to do.

And I love what I do and I love skating.

I'm really very glad that I had skating to be my love and my escape. I think that it always gave me something that made me feel good, and it was music, and it was peaceful, and not a lot of the other stresses of life.

I just try to touch people's hearts in a way through skating, so they're not just witnessing a performance, they're feeling a performance and they're a part of it.

What I love the most is getting on the ice and just popping in a fabulous CD and skating - all by myself, the rink completely empty, just me and the music.

When I go out on the ice, I just think about my skating. I forget it is a competition.

Skating was the vessel into which I could pour my heart and soul.

My skating is a very emotional thing that comes from the heart, never doing it for the medal.

You know what's good? Going on the ice and knowing that you don't have to skate when the whistle blows. All my life I've been the one skating.
