Kimmie Meissner Quotations

I am so happy with myself; it's an awesome feeling.

Fun definitely has to be in it. If you don't have fun, it's hard to do your best. It's not going to be enjoyable, you know?

I got a little ahead of myself, and I had to do a three-turn between them. I don't think that one mistake brought the whole program down.

The people that win, they really have something special, they really enjoy it, they are in there for that moment. It is so inspiring because you can really feel what they are feeling.

I think the judges know what they're doing. What I put out there is what they scored me on. I might have some things to work on, but I think the judges did a good job.

I think that if I skate really well and give the performance of my lifetime ... maybe I could (win gold). I'm not going to rule it out, but I'm just trying to think about what I need to do right now.

I think sometimes there's definitely too much pressure on winning a medal. It's not always about what color medal you get, it's more about if you have a good time and you take away a good experience.

I think sometimes there's definitely too much pressure on winning a medal.

I think I could have done much better. I've been practicing a lot better, but it's my first pretty big international competition, so I think I did pretty good.

I think I'm going to keep it in the closet.

I think gold is possible. Pretty much anything's possible.

It definitely inspires me to try to make it back so I can do a better program.

I think it would be a little disappointing, but hopefully if you're young enough you can go to the next one.

I thought it would be awesome just to have a medal at my first Worlds. My skate was so great today. The crowd just went crazy and I couldn't even hear the end of the music.

I might have surprised some people, but I didn't surprise myself. I'm definitely anxious to go back out there.

Definitely she's earned it. She has a pretty good track record. Since I don't have to make the decision, I'm glad.

The mistake on the combination and the one combination spin was kind of slow, and I can do my spins a little bit better. I didn't really feel that bad after the mistake because it wasn't a major mistake. I still got the combination off. With being sick, you have less energy.

This blows the rest of the programs out of the water.

It's just crazy because I've been dreaming about this a very long time. I just feel like, 'Is it even real?' It's just awesome.

It wasn't one of my best programs. But it was pretty good for my first Olympics.

I'm definitely anxious to get back out there, because I feel really strong and ready to go. I can't wait. I think it's important to be out there on the Olympic ice and feel comfortable with it and kind of get your bearings straight.

I'm just going to try to do a clean long. Right now, I feel pretty good about going for a medal.

I'm very pleased with my performance, I felt I gave it all I had. I'm sort of relaxed, but if I could, I would like to do the last element again.

I just figured this was my first worlds so just have fun with it, and when I hit my first jump I was like, 'I can do it.

I didn't feel that it was that bad of a mistake because it wasn't a major mistake.

I definitely wanted to do a clean short program, so I think I get an 'A' for that. Now I just want to do a clean long. I feel pretty good about going for a medal.

I feel it went really well. I did a PB (personal best) and had so much fun.

If you don’t have fun, it’s hard to do your best. It’s not going to be enjoyable.

For my first pretty big international competition and the Olympics, I think I did pretty well. Medals aren't everything. It's all about you going out there and having a good time. I feel proud of myself.

You know. Like that thing where I almost fell?
