I Don't Think Most Teachers

Most Other Competitions Are Individual Achievements, But The Olympic Games Is Something That Belongs To Everybody.

Each Movement Is Only Learned After You've Perfected The One Before It.

When You're Expected To Win And You Have The Press Saying That You Are Going To Win The Olympic Gold Medal, And You're The Only Sure Thing In The Olympics, It Can Undermine Your Confidence.

The Olympics In '80 Was Phenomenal. It Was My Favorite Memory Of All Competitive Events, Because It Was Brand New And It Was Exciting.

And So Figure Skating Was A Great Vehicle For Me To Kind Of Be Competitive At Something, Without Having To Be Big.
