Personal Quotes
I first skied when I was 22 months old.

I’d like to give my child the same feeling of safety and protection, of strictness and sweetness, my father gave me.

I always thought that the word “family” meant taking care of a person in every possible way. If two persons love one another, if they support each other economically, if they help each other, does it matter if they’re men, women, heterosexual, gay, African or Chinese? Why wouldn’t they have the same rights but also the same duties? Love is also about responsibility.
