I'm definitely not at my best. Honestly, I'm under 50 percent. But I've won stuff under 50 percent before.

It's amazing, but I guess that happens when you become overly famous. Every week now, I get more famous.

I have started to realize that I am really just a world athlete and a world entertainer -- I am a world-known person, I am a global icon.

I'm Serena Williams on the court, but away I have so many different names. I call myself Butterfly.

When you lose, you get up, you make it better, you TRY AGAIN.

I went on the courts with just a ball and a racket and a hope...and that's all I had.

I don't like to lose-at anything... Yet I've grown most not from victories, but setbacks. If winning is God's reward, then losing is how he teaches us.
