Sports are a microcosm of society.

Pressure is a privilege ... it's what you do with it that matters.

I was always in the tennis business-from 1968. I was in tournaments and also on World Team Tennis teams as well.

When we reach the point where the women athletes are getting their pick of dates just as easily as the men athletes, then we've really and truly arrived. Parity at last!

Martina and I went through a very bad five years. Everything's very good between us now, but it was a long haul.

I feel that tennis is an art form that is capable of moving the players and the audience - at least a knowledgeable audience-in almost sensual ways. When I'm performing at my absolute best, I think that some of the euphoria I feel must be transmitted to the audience.

You have got to want to be the best before you can even begin to reach for that goal, and you have got to be prepared to sacrifice a lot to get there.
