You know my dad pushed me to believe that I was going to be the best. I just never thought of life without tennis, even looking forward.

I question myself every day. That's what I still find motivating about this. I don't have the answers, I don't pretend that I do just because I won the match. Just keep fighting and maybe something good happens.

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

A strong body listens. It obeys. A weak body commands. If your body is weak it tells you what to do. If your body is strong it'll actually listen to you when you tell it to do something. If you build it right you can overcome some of the obstacles of age and recovery.

You don't cheat anybody out of their experience, whatever it is.

A great coach can lead you to a place where you don't need him any more.

Hitting a ball dead perfect - the only peace.
