Ich weiß, dass viele Champions den Gedanken unterhalten haben, je mehr sie die Jugendlichen entmutigen, desto länger würden sie regieren. Diese Theorie hat mich jedoch nie beeindruckt, und ich habe es mir immer zur Aufgabe gemacht, den Jugendlichen meine Erfahrungen im Radsport zu geben.

When I was young, many people didn't know what figure skating was. Some who knew of it thought of it as dancing on ice. But, as I entered international competitions and got good results, many people got to know more about it and came to cheer for me.

Making a movie is so hard, you'd better make movies about something you really know about. And even more, it's really good to make movies about things you need to figure out for yourself, so you're driven the whole way through. It's going to make things more crucial for you.
