Was Svetlana the Belorussian Swan? I adored her, her disdain was so regal.
I'm not a fan of the floor exercises, it's become too sexualized.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
He's gone, Brenda. But we're in the commercials, so there's always the chance of a lovely McCain attack spot!

“Not dead yet!”
I don't like floor exercise because it's become so discordant with the music, which makes me crazy.
I always thought if Khorkina had been a figure skater, she would've been the perfect match for Sasha Zhulin in ice dance in terms of mutual arrogance.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't think anyone really thinks they're "pretty." They're something to do in the rest that you've pretty much got to take between tough elements.

Also, I wouldn't guess Shawn Johnson at 16 from looking at her, either.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wasn't it though? She looked like an emu sucking on a lemon.
