“To this day, I don’t love my arms. People want more fit arms, but my arms are too fit. But I’m not complaining. They pay my bills.”

I was just tired of losing. Life was passing me by.

I’m thankful to my family, friends, and fans for all of their support.

No one likes getting their nails done more than I do.

I feel like I’m really young and I’m only thinking about my career and continuing playing.

I don’t like to lose-at anything… Yet I’ve grown most not from victories, but setbacks. If winning is God’s reward, then losing is how he teaches us.

I never thought about leaving a tennis legacy. I always thought about leaving a legacy of fulfillment, living out your dreams, and giving back.

I’m an athlete and I’m black, and a lot of black athletes go broke. I do not want to become a statistic, so maybe I overcompensate. But I’m paranoid. Oprah told me a long time ago, ‘You sign every check. Never let anyone sign any checks.’

My goal in a couple of years is to try to build a successful fashion house like Armani or Versace. I want that more than anything.

When you lose, you get up, you make it better, you TRY AGAIN.

You can be whatever size you are, and you can be beautiful both inside and out. We’re always told what’s beautiful and what’s not, and that’s not right.

My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body.

Luck has nothing to do with it.

I’ve never felt invincible. I’ve never used that word to describe me ever.

I think my father is probably the best coach ever because, if we talk about numbers, he’s got a lot and he’s only had two players.

I’m not used to crying. It’s a little difficult. All my life I’ve had to fight. It’s just another fight I’m going to have to learn how to win, that’s all. I’m just going to have to keep smiling.

I always say that when I’m playing well, no one can beat me. I’m not just saying that to sound full of myself or anything, but it’s true.

I have nobody. I have surrounded myself with people who are fake just because I need to talk to somebody.

It is very little to me to have the right to vote, to own property, etc., if I may not keep my body, and its uses, in my absolute right.

Our bodies are molded rivers.

The best thing about the sciences is their philosophical ingredient, like life for an organic body. If one dephilosophizes the sciences, what remains left? Earth, air, and water.

We touch heaven when we lay our hand on a human body!

There is but one temple in the universe, and that is the body of man.

If you wish to read the story of my people look no further than my body.

Process attraction through the soul, so the body won’t be fooled by it.
