I like to win. If I lose, I'm not very happy.

I'm happy to belong to this group of top champions having excelled here.

I lost races because I wanted too much to win them in beating my rivals.

I sat down with my trainers to check my past seasons and to see what could be done to keep me motivated and in good shape. I had to find a new motivation, a new momentum.

Ski racing, especially downhill, is a dangerous activity and there are many accidents. It would be really too bad to lose everything because of a crash.

I still have more to fight for in the coming years.

I won a great giant slalom in Japan last week, and it gave me momentum for this final part of the season.

I trained well this week but I think it will take some time until I recover my best rhythm in this specialty.

This time, I took it easier. I stood up before it so as not to crash again.

It's good to ski for fun, but I still want to win races as often as possible.

I have a strong lead so far, and I would be proud to win it because it remains the summit for a skier. I also aim to collect several smaller crystal trophies at Are, especially the GS Cup.

I was quite moved to see this huge crowd which attended the ceremony in the middle of the town.

Franz Klammer was my great idol in my younger years.

As the time goes by, you change, your learn new things, your attitude is different. For the moment, I'm still enjoying ski racing so much that it would be difficult for me to think about ending my career.

One victory more or less doesn't make the difference for me now.

I still have many goals left, especially the Overall World Cup standings.

It's funny to have become an elegant skier now. But my drive is still the same.

For the moment, the snow is quite wet and soft. If it was hard or icy, it would be a perfect downhill for my style, because I could fight even harder.

There is no pressure on me, I can take a lot of risks in the coming weeks. I feel free to ski the way I decide on race-day because the overall title was not my main target this winter.

I planned to stop in 2002 after the Salt Lake City Olympics. I felt able to remain competitive another four years, and I wanted to stop while I'm still at the top.

I'm quite excited to think that I will run the Olympic race here next year.

My attitude on skis is different now. I have learned to put less pressure on myself and on the edges of my skis when I'm racing, to be keep myself more under control.

I like to win. If I lose, I'm not very happy.

At my age, you need to verify that everything is fine. I put a lot of pressure on my body, and I feel sometimes pain in my back and in my knees, so I have to be sure that I can keep on training hard before going on.

When I was a child, all I wanted was to enter the Austrian team and to compete on the World Cup tour. I had to fight hard to reach this. I wanted badly to win each race.

When you have won everything in your career, what's left? Why go on?

The crowd is wonderful. There is always a superb atmosphere in the finish area. It's good for the World Cup. I missed it a lot when I had to rest and it's so nice to be back here.

If I remain healthy, I can win more races, but I don't think so much about setting new records. I'm already proud to have become the leading Austrian World Cup racer.

It was necessary to organize my career to remain at the top level until Salt Lake City.

It was really tough to race the GS a day after the downhill, but that's over now. I'm looking forward for the rest of the season which is also quite interesting.

I show women growing, changing, becoming stronger in many kinds of situations.

It's when you've stopped writing and are doing other things, especially when you're asleep, that the real work is done.

I love sitcoms, and I grew up on sitcoms. That's my tasty junk food.

All gardening is landscape painting.

Michael's the ultimate entertainer. After Michael Jackson, it's Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Lee.

If I ruled the world, every woman would have a Chanel suit in her wardrobe.

Learn to admire rightly; the great pleasure of life is that. Note what the great men admired; they admired great things; narrow spirits admire basely, and worship meanly.

I'm a transactional lawyer, which involves a lot of negotiation. If nothing else, that's given me a good eye for human motivation and frequent case studies in peculiar psychological quirks. I think that's served me fairly well as a writer.

There are many paths but only one journey.

It's a repressive society where you can't be horrible, I'm not horrible, they made me horrible, I'm just honest.

It is the vocation of the Christian in every generation to out-think all opposition.

I'm in favor of legalizing drugs. According to my values system, if people want to kill themselves, they have every right to do so. Most of the harm that comes from drugs is because they are illegal.

I'm Irish, I'm from New York, and I definitely have issues.

We cannot aim at anything less than the Union of Europe as a whole and we look forward with confidence to the day when that Union will be achieved.

I always wanted to create a site that was sports and pop culture. '30 for 30' had a big impact because I loved how that was about finding, empowering and working with these incredible directors, and I thought the same thing could work for writers.

The thing about the Internet is we take everything too far. Once something becomes 'popular' in our realm, it's everywhere, and I get sick of hearing about it quickly.
