"Mone Chiba stands; we all stand in utter adoration of Kaori Sakamoto. The lyrics 'Je ne regrette rien'—I regret nothing—she has nothing now to regret; the best she has ever skated in her final World Championships, and thank goodness now it's tears of joy, not the tears of sadness from Milan. I hope she knows now what this means to all of us lovers of skating and lovers of her."
