I just go where I'm sent and I do what I'm told. I listen to the highest voices within me. I don't feel the least bit courageous. I don't feel like I deserve any medals. I don't feel that I'm any more special than anybody else who's out there.

I have learned from the first Olympics, of course. When I went to my first Olympic Games, I experienced all of the pressure and was able to win the gold medal. I try not to feel the pressure, and I try not to be nervous when I am on the ice and when I compete.
