I know that I am the kind of person that gets a little bit more nervous than other skaters, but that's because I care for my skating very much. I take all my emotions with me. I can't go out and say 'Now, this is just my job.' I really care. ”

Skating isn't about the medals or the results. I love what I do. It's much more fun to win, but you cannot every time. ”

I can't work on something if I don't believe in it. I love music, and I am inspired to work harder and spend more energy. I feel lucky that I was born with this passion. ”

It's only when an artist becomes a master that they are fully able to express themselves. ”

I think everybody has ups and downs in their lives. We learn from the biggest disappointments, right? You learn how to be humble to yourself and to be humble to others. ”
