Skating takes up 70 percent of my time, school about 25 percent. Having fun and talking to my friends, 5 percent. It's hard. I envy other kids a lot of things, but I get a guilt trip when I'm not training.

I got a call this morning, and it was from Nancy Kerrigan, wishing me luck. She wished me luck and sent me all her good wishes.

I was so worried about winning, it was as if I was caught up in my own web.

I always thought after 2002 that I'd hang up my skates and turn professional and just go on tour and do shows. But I don't know when it is enough. I mean, I still enjoy it. I'm the luckiest girl alive that I get to perform in front of thousands of people, do what I love doing.

As I've gotten older and grown more independent, I think for myself, and that's how it should be.

As an athlete, I've always been very proud to represent the United States.

Because I'm pushing my body so hard already, the last thing I want to do is have music that's really too strong, in my head.

I actually prefer soothing music - and maybe that's the skater in me.

I don't really remember a time younger than 5 years old that I didn't have skates on because all I can remember is every day, tying up my skates and a big smile on my face, excited to go on the ice.

I had dreamed of being at the Olympics since I was 7 years old.

I want to see how far I can train. I have to see how far my body will go.

I would just love to be able to give back to figure skating.

I'm a big eater.

Skating has given me so much that it's priceless.

Sometimes my body is aching, but I always think, 'Why am I in this? Why do I love it so much?' That's what makes me persevere, that's what makes me keep on going.

There's a lot of emotions that always come out after a skate of a lifetime. I always start crying because there is so much buildup to that competition.

To represent your country is an honor and a great experience.

What I love the most is getting on the ice and just popping in a fabulous CD and skating - all by myself, the rink completely empty, just me and the music.

When I was younger, I always dreamed of being a legend, to be remembered in figure skating.

You can always say, 'I wish I had landed that triple flip better, or I wish I didn't fall.' They're not regrets, just mistakes.

Skating is in my heart, not my head.

Love looks through a telescope; envy, through a microscope.

Envy like fire always makes for the highest points.

Far less envy in America than in France, and far less wit.

Envy is an insult to oneself.

With a few flowers in my garden, half a dozen pictures and some books, I live without envy.

Exploiting people's emotions of fear, envy and anxiety is not hope, it's not change, it's partisanship. We don't need partisanship. We don't need demagoguery, we need solutions.

Only fools live in the past or carry envy to the present.

Pride, which inspires us with so much envy, is sometimes of use toward the moderating of it too.

On every movie I've done as a director, I look at the producers and having done it, I don't envy them, at all.

I envy paranoids; they actually feel people are paying attention to them.

Moral indignation in most cases is, 2% moral, 48% indignation, and 50% envy.

It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered.

Envy is the art of counting the other fellow's blessings instead of your own.

I have no respect for the passion of equality, which seems to me merely idealizing envy.

I don't work a five-day week as a rule, and I've managed to fill that time up. It hasn't been that hard. I volunteer at school. I'm working because I love it. Yet, I don't not envy women who have a stay-at-home job, because you miss stuff.

On the one hand, people think they own kids; they feel that they have the right to tell the kids what to do. On the other hand, people envy kids. We'd like to be kids our whole lives. Kids get to do what they do. They live on their instincts.

In Britain, because I live here, I can also run into problems of envy and competition. But all this is just in a day's work for a writer. You can't put stuff out there without someone calling you a complete fool. Oh, well.

I envy people who can just look at a sunset. I wonder how you can shoot it. There is nothing more grotesque to me than a vacation.

Skating takes up 70 percent of my time, school about 25 percent. Having fun and talking to my friends, 5 percent. It's hard. I envy other kids a lot of things, but I get a guilt trip when I'm not training.

The flower which is single need not envy the thorns that are numerous.

When I went to Philadelphia I was 26 years old and really sitting on top of the world. Family life, a professional career, plenty of friends and associates, and a good reputation, a wish list that could be the envy of many.

God's truth judges created things out of love, and Satan's truth judges them out of envy and hatred.

O! what a Godlike Power is that of doing Good! I envy the Rich and the Great for nothing else!

Birds have wings; they're free; they can fly where they want when they want. They have the kind of mobility many people envy.

Envy is human nature.

Never underestimate the power of jealousy and the power of envy to destroy. Never underestimate that.

Every time that I think of the crucifixion of Christ, I commit the sin of envy.
