I did it my way, and I have no regrets when I look back on my career that it was just a big focus for me.

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.

In tennis, you can make a couple of mistakes and still win. Not in golf. I played three rounds in that Tahoe event, and I was drained. Mentally, not physically.

The only person that I have met, that I have ever been in awe of, is Eddie Vedder.

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.

People are like waves of the ocean, some cover you with tides of refreshment, whilst others drown you in floods of turmoil

I think it's one of the main negative emotional ingredients that fuels show business, because there's so much at stake and the fear of failure looms large.

I can tell you from experience that God's help and presence in our lives is vital. He is the Author of all true success and everything that is good-without Him, we can do nothing of true value.

In my humble opinion, in the nuclear world, the true enemy is war itself.

I try not to get too cute for cute's sake.

One honor won is a surety for more.

After 9/11, we realized that all these silly culture wars, and arguing about rock lyrics... who cares? You know, we, for some reason, remembered what our real problems are.

The idea that any performer type is owed anything is a joke to me.

I'm married, and my wife has set out very limited Xbox limits. But if I had my druthers, I'd be playing all the time and never see any of my friends or do any work.
