Racism is not an excuse to not do the best you can.

I'm learning to use others' weaknesses. I don't hammer a man's soft spot constantly, because he may strengthen it. I just save it as a trump up my sleeve for moments when I really need a point.

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

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.

This is my career highlight. Getting to the fourth round in the U.S. Open in my first year in the U.S. Open and first year on the tour.

Let me put it this way: I think Republicans tend to keep the ball in play, Democrats go for broke.

Do not feel sorry for me if I am gone.
