Brian Boitano's Quotes
- That's what amateur skating is about, technical expertise, and it should always stay that way.
- The U.S. Olympic spirit award is an award that is given to an athlete who embodies the Olympic spirit in more ways than just on the playing field, in showing incredible perseverance, in overcoming obstacles, and what we wanted to do is have everybody can vote on-line.
- Yeah, I am a little bit, and I think it is a natural progression of the sport, of going upwards in technical ability and everything like that.
- I have to consider my greatest accomplishments winning the Olympics because everything that I've done after that is really because of the Olympics.
- Plus the public's attention span is so short right now, if a skater doesn't strike while the iron is hot... well it's not like people will forget you, but they just won't care anymore.
