"The Olympics: not one of my better memories."

"I tell people I'm too stupid to know what's impossible. I have ridiculously large dreams, and half the time they come true."

"I just thought that it was magical having to glide across the ice."

"I would make my mom buy me the toy doctor kit."

"Right now I am doing my residency in orthopedic research."

"So I went for engineering, specifically product design, which I enjoyed."

"I am not really sure how I got interested in medicine."

"What was most important to me at the Olympics was going out there and performing my best. When I messed up the first jump combination, which was my big move, it hit me that I messed up the program of my life."

"I begged my mom to let me start skating."

"My skating is a very emotional thing that comes from the heart, never doing it for the medal."

"Probably the '86 nationals. That was my first real national title and first real statement I ever made in figure skating, and my life changed after I returned."

"I was always very strong in math, physics and calculus."
