Once the US Open is over in the States, mainstream America doesn't really follow tennis, unless you are a true tennis fan.

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.

My father did not teach me how to live. He lived and let me watch him do it.

She lived in fear of ifonic endings.

I'm not intimidated by how people perceive me.

I really don't remember much about Cleopatra. There were a lot of other things going on.

Blame it on Peer Pressure.

Design may be the logical solution to a problem, but it's never a formula. Design grows out of clarity of purpose.

I'm going to go and leave my blood all over the track.

On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion.
