Michael Weiss and Todd Eldredge and I all competed against each other. Even though I'm older than them, we did cross over a little bit.

Doing shows is always a side of skating that I’ve loved, it’s the performing. I get to do that without the pressure, it’s always fun between the skaters and the preparation, the show is always so much fun.

All those hours spent alone on the rink is where a skater's strength comes from. That's where a standing ovation starts and if you don't want to be there, it is going to show. Nothing you dreamed about is going to happen if you forget why you started in the first place. You have to skate with you heart. Before anyone can believe in you, you have to believe in yourself.

Nothing dumb ever starts out stupid.

There are only so many skaters like Brian Orser. Nobody is going to just step into his shoes.

I continued a legacy of great skating from this country and I was able to capitalize on the reputation of the Canadian skaters that came before me. I especially mean Brian Orser.

Sometimes my skating allows me to do things I never dreamed possible.

Canadians are a warm crowd, they are never bias. When they see a good performance, doesn't matter who it is, they'll stand up.

If you don't bring it, you'll have to file a provisional ballot.

Just watching as a kid, I never thought I would reach this level so soon and I would actually get to do this stuff.
