Immediately after the Olympics, I was pretty fatigued.

I'm not a big fan of those who are egotistical and so outspoken.

When I was skating you had to participate in every thing.

Then going out on the ice usually about 15 minutes before and certain things I would do for the different races, aspects that you run through your mind.

Cyclists, I work with a number of cyclists. They are great athletes; they are great aerobic athletes. If you ask them to hit a baseball or golf ball, they can't do that.

I have a very close friendship with the skaters.

It is not the events in our life that define our character, but how we deal with them.

I mean you got to thank your parents for giving you the right genes.

I didn't get into skating to be famous.

On today's athletes: I wish I could turn back the clock a little bit so I'd have a chance to cut it up with those guys.

In general, I enjoy athletes who have a strong character who let their abilities speak for themselves.

Lockhart'll sign anything if it stands still long enough.

I fear no man, no beast or evil, brother.

It is after all the greatest art to limit and isolate oneself.

We're going to stand up to China, we're going to stop their currency manipulation and product dumping, which is killing us.

Our best protection against bigger government in Washington is better government in the states.

You're born with intelligence, but not with ethics.

You can't escape moral judgment through a legal loop hole.

Gangsta rappers, they call them. Not nearly as gangsta as the things that inspire them.. you know, a gangsta government that we operate under.

My brain, I believe, is the most beautiful part of my body.

The thing to remember about Phuket is it's very beach-oriented and relaxed. The trendiest beach is Koh Sirey, which is full of groovy places to have a cocktail and watch the sun go down.
