“I’ve had to learn to fight all my life – got to learn to keep smiling. If you smile things will work out.”

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’m so frugal, you wouldn’t believe it.

Everyone in this room knows that Venus is probably one of the greatest people on the tour. She’s really great. She’s super professional. Complete opposite of me.

Venus told me the other day that champions don’t get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn’t get nervous and just do the best I can.

We all know who the real number one is. Quite frankly, I’m the best in the world.

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.

We’ll fight through this crisis together, and emerge stronger than ever.

Never think of pain or danger or enemies a moment longer than is necessary to fight them.

Never pick a fight with an ugly person, they’ve got nothing to lose.

I had hoped that liberal and enlightened thought would have reconciled the Christians so that their religious fights would not endanger the peace of Society.

The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Learn to value yourself, which means: fight for your happiness.

The challenge before us right now is still immense and growing, and so is the need for bold action to fight this pandemic.

A little less fight and a little more spark, close your mouth and open your heart.
