Quotations

I want to show everyone, by my skating, that I can still perform, even after winning the Olympic Games. I can't say where I will finish at my fourth Olympics, but for me, taking part in the Games in Sochi will be a victory in itself.

“I think that our Sochi2014.ru World Russky Dom gave a big celebration to all guests in Vancouver, who came here from different countries. It is especially pleasing that among the daily scores of people who waited in line at the Sochi World entrance, there were many children for whom entry was open. Of course, our house received guests in a special warm and hospitable way. In regards to the Games themselves, I particularly liked the fact that the venues were located very close to one another. Sochi World was no exception, which is why it was often visited by members of our Russian team, Russian sports stars and international celebrities.”
