I love tennis. But even if I become the greatest of all time, I still don't only want to be defined by tennis. I'm my own person. And I want to be remembered as I really am. I'm so much more than tennis.

I love the Olympics. I love the idea of something happening every four years. I've always had love for Bulgaria, and I've always been a Bulgarian. That's also really part of why I want to play it. I know it's tough for the calendar, but at the same time, it's the Olympics.

Tennis is my dream. It is what I love. And it is what I want to be best at.

I would love when that day comes so I can prove everyone wrong, but in the same time prove to myself I can be the best I can be.

We must prevent a criminal understanding between the Fascist aggressors and the British and French imperialist clique.

I'm a very creative person in general. I like to create stuff in my downtime off the court. If I were to tell you everything I do, you would be like, "Do you really play tennis?"

I don't need to put extra pressure on myself right now. The important thing is for me to stay healthy, in practice, and just keep on the hours. You just never know when it's going to happen for you.
