I hate to lose more than I love to win.

There was never anything I wanted to do more than play tennis. Never once walked out there and thought, 'I wish I was doing something else.' Not once.

People don't seem to understand that it's a damn war out there.

With everything else that would swirl around me when I got involved in it, tennis was my main concern.

Bjorn was a different breed, I threw my best material at him, but he would never smile, but that added to the charm when he played me and Mac. We were going nuts and losing our mind and he was sitting back like he was on a Sunday stroll.

What works for the person you're imitating may not work for you.

Nothing's perfect along the way [in life], and you ride the ups and downs. It's how you come out of those and continue on that I guess really matters.
