I went through very emotional things this year, like being in the French Open finals already feeling like you got it and kind of losing it.

I'm glad you're doing this story on us and not on the WNBA. We're so much prettier than all the other women in sports.

I was always at peace because of the way my mom treated me.

I think the whole boycott thing was a bit too much. It's because we're accomplished so much in women's tennis in the last two, three years. We deserve something better.

What rivalry? I win all the matches.

I didn't have the same fitness or ability as the other girls, so I had to beat them with my mind.

A lot of these young girls, they dont even know what the game is about. They have never seen a drop shot, a slice and all the mixture and variety I have.

The older you get, the more you learn.

I'm not saying I'm something special. I might play a little better tennis than other people, but it is because I was given the chance, and not many people are.

I've been on top longer and I am younger. I'm just better.

I feel a quarter Indian.

I’ve come to understand that life is a constant letting go.

I never realizedtill nowhow hard the brain has to workto make the body do what it asks.Or maybe how hard the body has to workto ignorethe brain.

Love is the power to see similarity in the dissimilar.

That's the best way to feed the human mind. That's how Bob Marley did it. He never put it in your face. After you got the groove, you were just singing the hooks, because you thought it was cool.

If we will only think, we shall begin to thank.

In moments of surprise we catch at least a glimpse of the joy to which gratefulness opens the door.

Though through all his life a fool associates with a wise man, he yet understands not the Dharma, as the spoon, the flavor of soup.

The wrongs of a Husband or Master are not reproached.

There are girls, not specially beautiful, whom you could not lose in a crowd. There are other girls, apparently perfect in beauty, who seem to melt into insignificance.

All you need is to know what you want, and to want it badly enough so that it will stay in your thoughts.
