Aside from the natural progression of time, everything in figure skating
is status quo; the way things are done is the way they have always been
done. Today, there is official practice, tomorrow is the short program, and a mere 24 hours later is the long program.
Every nap is predestined, every step you take is to better your
performance, every calorie you take in could make or break your chances.

His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.
