If I didn't play tennis I probably would have to see a psychiatrist.

The best way to judge a life is to ask yourself, "Did I make the best use of the time I had?

Later, I discovered there was a lot of work to being good in tennis.

If I don't ask "Why me?" after my victories, I cannot ask "Why me?" after my setbacks and disasters.

My potential is more than can be expressed within the bounds of my race or ethnic identity.

We must believe in the power of education. We must respect just laws. We must love ourselves, our old and or young, our women as well as our men.

Wherever I am when you feel sick at heart and weary of life, or when you stumble and fall and don’t know if you can get up again, think of me. I will be watching and smiling and cheering you on.
