Almost nothing is presented to you on a silver platter. You have to really work for it.

It's hard work to make a four-minute program look effortless and elegant.

Sometimes I even now feel like a stranger in my country. But I knew there would be problems because I had seen the world as a skater. And now? A lot of people in eastern Germany have lost jobs, rents went up, food costs went up, unemployment went to 20 percent. Freedom is good, but it is not easy.

Too many times women try to be competitive with each other. We should help support each other, rather than try to be better than each other.

Skating taught me to set a goal and to block out other things and just focus on this one thing.

When you're young, you don't think very far ahead. You just think in terms of the next day, the next week, the next competition. You don't think about injuries that could threaten your long-term health.

I never really like to skate in an empty ice rink; I always need the attention of an audience.

Sometimes, success almost haunts you. You want to be the best at everything you do and know you have to work hard.

I was an athlete. And I proved I didn't win just because I was pretty. I was good, too.
