Patrick Chan

“I relate really well to individuals who have a career and explore other adventures outside of skating. That, to me, is fascinating.”

“There isn't quite a feeling you get from playing video games that you get when you're playing sports, which is like a sense of euphoria. You just get the satisfaction of doing something active and feeling good after.”

“In Japan, skating is like NHL hockey in Canada or baseball in the U.S., so pushing the limit is very enticing. Skating is their lives.”

“I hope I can compete in one or two Olympics in my career. Of course I would like to win a medal, but just being there would be awesome.”

“If I ever got in the way of Kurt Browning or Elvis Stojko, and they got mad and yelled at me, I'd be, 'Oh my God! I'm so sorry!'”

“I have a good idea of how lucky we are to be growing up in Canada.”
