It's one-on-one out there, man. There ain't no hiding. I can't pass the ball.

People know me. I'm not going to produce any cartwheels out there. I'm not going to belong on Comedy Central. I'll always be a tennis player, not a celebrity.

The difference of great players is at a certain point in a match they raise their level of play and maintain it. Lesser players play great for a set, but then less.

I made it look so easy on court all those years. No one realized how hard I had to work. No one realized how much I had to put into it. They underestimated my intensity.

I never wanted to be the great guy or the colorful guy or the interesting guy. I wanted to be the guy who won titles.

Girls like you want to cut guy's nuts off and hang 'em from your rearview mirror.

Justice isn’t about fixing the past

In the piquancy of tranquil tears... a much needed attributefor purifying a fervent prayer…

Once you have a lot of success, you become a target in many ways.

Whenever someone tells me he dreamed, I wonder if he realizes that he has never done anything but dream.

Your kid's ordinary. And so are you.

You can eliminate, for example, a Brazil nut gene if you know that it will create an allergenic effect.

The truth is, the more kind and liberal a man is, the more generous will be the patronage bestowed upon him.

An empire is an immense egotism.

When you feel betrayed by someone that you trust the most... As an actor, you look for something that's going to let you express some of your inner emotions and anger.
