My sporting hero was Drazen Petrovic, the NBA basketball player, who was killed in a car accident in 1993. He was a good friend, an unbelievable player, and I dedicated my Wimbledon win to him.

Although we didn't have much when I was growing up in Split, Croatia, my parents always tried to ensure that my sister and I had the things we needed, and it was enough for us.

The trouble with me is that every match I play against five opponents: umpire, crowd, ball boys, court, and myself.

If I can't serve on grass, I can maybe help cut the grass, paint the lines and serve some strawberries.

I don't care now if I ever win a match in my life again. Whatever I do in my life, wherever I go, I'm going to be always Wimbledon champion.

I have so many runner-up cups that I am thinking of starting my own tea shop.

When you are winning too much, sometimes you think you should never lose again. I am learning to lose.

Ivan Lendl's never going to be a great player on grass. The only time he comes to the net is to shake your hand.

With me, you never know what is going to happen

My fines? I pay more fines than some guys' career prize money on the tour.

I think I owe it to myself and my fans in Britain to play one more Wimbledon.

Your thought is so important because it has the ability to make or mar you. Your thought will either move you forward or set you backwards.

There are so many things that I want so badly to tell you but I just can't.

Anger and bitterness—whatever the cause—only end up hurting us. Turn that anger over to Christ.

Because no one ever listens to the dog.

Reason is the life of the law nay the common law itself is nothing else but reason. The law which is perfection of reason.

Turn resolutely to work, to recreation, or in any case to physical exercise till you are so tired you can't help going to sleep, and when you wake up you won't want to worry.

I would rather not watch myself in movies. I enjoy the experience, but I won't really see the film until they're on cable deep on into my life so I can pretend it's someone else at another time.

I'm swanning round the world looking at the most fabulously interesting things. Such good fortune.

Napoleon affords us an example of the danger of elevating one's self to the absolute, and sacrificing everything to the carrying out of an idea.

There's no correlation between how good your idea is and how likely your organization will be to embrace it.
