I've been criticized for not having perspective in the past and I thought that of myself many times but not there.

The most animated talks we have are about...things

Tennis is at an amazing time when you've got two of the best players ever to play the game. You can argue the two very best playing in the same generation. It's a rivalry I think that we've never seen in our sport.

How lovely it is to dream while you are awake.

It means a lot to you, to be out there. The highs are pretty high, and the lows are pretty low. You know, it's easy to feel like you let the team down. I mean, at the end of the day we still got to figure out a way to get through the tie.

I've been motivated by overcoming challenge and overcoming the hurdles and obstacles that face me. There still is plenty out there to get motivated by.

My feelings are Yevgeny Kafelnikov should take his prize money when he is done here and go and buy some perspective.
