Mafuyu Kirisu in _We Never Learn_, by Taishi Tsutsui
- Are you nervous?
Non-existent. There is no competitor in the world that could truly stay calm in such a critical moment. So stop thinking about something as absurd as forcing yourself to stay calm. The tense feeling, the expectation of others, and the pressure toward the result... it's fine to accept them all and enjoy it. If anything, when that time comes, those feelings might be able to bring out your top performance.
