I pass through the difficult moments in life, really difficult times on grass, during my seven years of my career. All of a sudden I felt comfortable.

But when I'm losing a few matches, suddenly 'It's his fault', 'He doesn't want to practice', 'He doesn't need it', 'He doesn't care'. And when everything goes well, there are people coming behind the stone, saying, 'Oh, my God, he's back finally, and I was there to help him out'.

I achieved what I want to achieve and I want to continue doing something else.

There's a lot of things in life that we don't know why they're coming exactly at this moment.

I could pose in fashion commercials as a high society star but politics is a new way of life.

I was very competitive. I hated losing. No matter what, I had to win.

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.
