thanks Gis! This is a google translation of the article:http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=fi&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.uc.kr.ua%2Ffresh%2F5876%2F

I thought this was a funny part: "I remember very well the Olympics in Turin. Before the performance Alexei Yagudin called me and told me to exert all his strength, but remember that the Olympic title - not the most important thing in my life. He said no matter what happens - we will simply live. And when a few years, with family and children, we meet at the kebab or something like that, the Olympics will be the last thing on which we remember."

Actually after I read this interview, I had tears in my eyes. I've never been like this before after reading a simple interview, but this one... Maybe I'm too emotional before the Olympics, but anyways, I have only one thing to say -

I'm proud of Brian and the kind of person he is, and I'm proud to say out loud that I'm his fan, because being his fan makes me a better person, too.

I love this article. A fresh look, and lots of stuff I did not know before. I love Brain for his skating, but I am finding that he is quite a remarkable person outside the rink, as well.

My favorite quote was:
And I was very upset, but not for long. Then I say to myself: "This is a challenge. He must accept and overcome difficult moments unfavorable". After them, I get only stronger. "

Thanks for all links!

I loved the bit about what he would do if he had loads of money - buy motorbikes (of course!) as well as sharing it with his family & those in need.

I hope lots of people read this interview - many will be suprised at his consideration for others & lack of ego........

Quote:

"Evgueni Plushenko est devenu champion d’Europe après presque quatre ans d’absence. Quelles sont vos relations avec le Russe ?"
Je n’ai rien contre lui car c’est un grand champion qui mérite le respect. Après, pour être honnête, il est, disons, insupportable (rires).
