Many say that (Pete) Sampras is the greatest player. But I say with all due respect to the rest, that he (Roger Federer) is the most complete player in the world so far.

Today I break racquets for tomorrow we die.

I'm not a materialistic person.

All in all, I think Kazan is Russia's sportiest city after Moscow, leaving all the others far behind.

Roger [Federer], he brought tennis... one level higher. Normally he toys with everybody. With all respect to other players, he does whatever he wants on the court against them. It's incredible what kind of game he can play.

I've had good times and bad times. That's me. That's how I am.

You have to wake up and you have to run if you want to survive.
