Sasha Cohen Definitely Quotations

She's the World Champion from last year. She's skated really strongly all season. She's definitely one of the top contenders.

I was disappointed and in a little bit of shock. I had a really hard time with a couple of jumps in the warm-up and I just couldn't get over it. I definitely didn't think I was going to get any medal at all at the end of the program, so it was a nice surprise.

I was very disappointed with my skate. I definitely gave 100 percent in my effort, I gave it my all. So I have no regrets with that. But it just wasn't my night.

I would never let myself believe that. I'm a strong athlete and I definitely believe I'm getting stronger.

I was proud of myself for what I overcame with being sick this week. But it definitely would mean more with Michelle here. She's won so many titles in the past, and I was always second, but I'm not complaining about this title.

When I do win a national title, it would definitely mean a lot more if (Kwan) is there.

Definitely you have to be able to handle pressure and shake off any mistake and I kind of didn't do that tonight. I let that first mistake creep in. I have to be tougher.

If she's healthy and able to compete, she's definitely one of the strongest to compete for the United States at the Olympics.

It's definitely tough to know you're going to be the last one. It's the best skaters in the world, it's the Olympic Games, it's 11:30 at night. But you just sort of stay in your own world, take it one step at a time and stay strong.

I definitely didn't think I was going to get any medal when I finished skating. I was just in a little bit of shock.

I definitely don't feel flawless. I felt strong and I made it happen. I tried to believe in myself. You don't know how strong you are until you test yourself.
