I don't have time to be negative.

Some people say I have attitude - maybe I do... but I think you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does - that makes you a winner right there.

I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.

Just believe in yourself. Even if you don't, pretend that you do and, at some point, you will.

My motto is: I'm alive, so that means I can do anything.

Of course, I want to be number one. But being happy and healthy is the most important thing.

Tennis is mostly mental. Of course, you must have a lot of physical skill, but you can't play tennis well and not be a good thinker. You win or lose the match before you even go out there.

Most men wait to move until victory is guaranteed.

What are you, Zombie Slayer Barbie?" The big man in the back barked a laugh. "You'll pay for that one.

We all have our pet things that we like to get religious about.

I have always thought of Christmas time... as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time.

In America, we are just moving the chairs around and spending huge amounts of money rather than having them go in making people's lives better.

It still feels like an honor to bring something [on Sundance].

The nearest figure to myself would be Shakespeare.
