I don't think I'm one of those guys who won't pick up a racket for three years...I love hitting tennis balls.

If I wore a sleeveless shirt, people would try to feed me after the match.

I'm just glad to see that Pete (Sampras) shut everyone up last year. That was satisfying. You can't bag on guys like Pete or Tiger (Woods) or Michael Jordan. They can play as long as they want, they can do whatever they want. Nobody should be able to tell them differently.

I don't want to live and die with every point that's being played out there now. I'm going to let my coach live and die with every point.

When you come off something really disappointing, you want to come back and kind of regroup and get involved in something positive right away.

I think the medical term for the injury is 'the bottom of my ass hurts.'

I used to, like, hit for a half hour and then go eat Cheetos the rest of the day, come out and drill forehands. Now I'm really trying to make it happen, being professional, really going for it, and I miss my Cheetos.
