I don't believe in playing hurt, in taking injections to cover the pain.

It is what it is. But, it will be what you make it.

I never really did Christmas before. Christmas Day? I mean - what's that? What's it all about? I was always flying on Christmas Day

What I put in the stock market, I dont have to touch in my lifetime. I want to live off my bonds. I want to be that safe.

I don't like salads: I like the strong food.

Madonna has total control over her life, and not many women have that

I never knew I was grunting, it was just part of my strokes.

I think for me, food was a way for me to deal with emotional trouble.

I am lucky to have advisers whom I trust.

I have this terrible dark side to my personality, which playing tennis keeps at bay

Tennis is so competitive. I guess that's the way it has to be.

I'm about the present.

You have to want to play it all day, every day to get to the top.

I did realize more than ever, after the stabbing, that tennis is a business - a tough business.

That's the key to success, isn't it? It has to be fun.

I used to pretend that I was Tom attacking Jerry, who was drawn on the ball

Life is not worth living if I cannot have pasta or bread again.

Tennis has to become everything to you if you're going to make it to the top. You have to live it.

I knew that maybe I couldn't be playing again, but I just wanted to get in physical shape.
