Thank you for the video, Gaja. And jomeku, thanks for your translation.
I think he says that love without seduction is sad, not dull. No?
I was also thinking about his "entier" description.
Google brings some more meaning for the word, among them:
total
total, global, complet, absolu, entier
undivided
indivisé, entier, unanime, non partagé
unreserved
non réservé, inconditionnel, entier

I think he probably meant that he invests himself fully in every thing he does, unreserved, absolute, he puts his undivided attention and efforts.
But it's always nice to hear him explain what he wanted to say. Hope someone asks him.
About regrets: I didn't hear "danse" there, wasn't it something like "de pas avoir d'faire plus dedans" (not being able to do more when I was in?)
I'm listening now to that audio interview, thanks to Gaja for the link, it was a preview for Euros.
Stephane says that Swiss team has representation in all four disciplines, this is already a small victory.
He also points out - and as obvious as it is I actually never thought about it - that one of the main difficulties in figure skating that you need to discover the talented child very early, to have time to invest in him while very young he already should be on the top level. And it's not easy to spot this.
He also criticizes Swiss federation who didn't look for such talents when he and Sarah were competing, they had to prepare successors for them back then. Yes, they both were more than ten years in this circles, but it was clear that at some point it will be over and you need to prepare what's next. He also mentions that the structure of the federation was changed recently so he can't say much about the current situation, we need to wait a bit longer to see.
(still listening, will add more)
Adding...
The host compared Swiss skaters to the top results, Stephane noted that tops are Yuzuru Hanyu who is a genius and he himself also won't be get such points. Then he says that Swiss boys are good skaters, he encourages them to continue their career, to motivate themselves to go forward but to have people to represent Switzerland in Olympic Games 2018 and 2022 it might be already too late for them to be those people...
- Well, maybe some young skaters who train at yours in Champery?
- Talented people are not coming only from Valais, they are everywhere. But you need a program for them, for example, in Champery we have a good structure where we also work on off ice training. We have dance lessons(?) to develop artistic side too, to get a feeling for music, for movement. And on the ice we work on the technical side. And I see that children develop, go forward. So, yes, I encourage children who have potential and want to work, to come to Champery to enjoy the structure which is complete. And the venue itself is very comfortable to work in, there are no destructions, there is everything there to become a champion.
- So it's better to come to learn from you, World champion, even if it means to leave the skating rink in Zurich?
- There are other things you have to consider, there is family, so it might be a lot sacrifice to make. But why not, if there are people who are ready to make such sacrifices, the structure is there.
