Sitaatit

• ?Vellu Ketola (''w:Veli-Pekka Ketola|Veli-Pekka Ketola'') näytti hyvin trimmatulta huippu-urheilijalta. Minä taas hyvinleikatussa liituraitapuvussanikin enemmän ryhävalaalta kuin entiseltä ammattiurheilijalta. Hyppäsin vaakaan. Oh my God! Se näytti 111 kiloa!?
• Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." Thank you, guys. So proud of you all. Coaching this team is a tremendous honour.
