“You have your bad moments in your career and your good moments. And it’s been a good ride so far, but it’s not over yet.”

I’m focused on going out every day and doing my best.

A great tennis career is something that a 15-year-old normally doesn’t have. I hope my example helps other teens believe they can accomplish things they never thought possible.

I hit a ball for a living, but I have that passion to keep learning.

I want my tennis to speak for everything.

I don’t get to do as much sightseeing as I would like to.

I find a lot of inspiration in street style and watching women walk, the way they wear things and what they’re wearing.

I’m just a very tough person when I go on the court, and I really don’t want to lose.

If I loved a guy as much as I love my dog, the guy would be in serious trouble because I’m all over that dog, all of the time.

Through my travels, I find inspiration in street style and how young women create their individual looks and identity.

I’m never standing still and that makes my life pretty exciting.

My shoulder’s not where I want it to be, but I’m doing a good job of monitoring it.

I’m not the next anyone, I’m the first Maria Sharapova.

I have always had an interest in fashion and design and I appreciate style and timelessness within my footwear and accessories both on and off the court

I’m always on the go. I love doing things until I hit rock bottom. Then I need my 12 hours of sleep, and I’m on the go again.

I love what I do and I love being an athlete, but I also love all the things that have come with it.

Maybe if I was British, a semi-final would be incredible. I’d be on the front page of the paper.

Death is an equall doome To good and bad, the common In of rest.

Something was badly amiss with the spiritual life of the planet, Too many demons inside people claiming to believe in God.

Men are always ready to die for us, but not to make our lives worth having. Cheap sentiment and bad logic.

Writing stopped being fun when I discovered the difference between good writing and bad and, even more terrifying, the difference between it and true art. And after that, the whip came down.

Give me unexpected whether it is good or bad, I learn from it all. As you build or break me in the end, I will stand tall.

For liberty hath a sharp and double edge, fit only to be handled by just and virtuous men; to bad and dissolute, it becomes a mischief unwieldy in their own hands.

Better to make a good future than predict a bad one.

I am very bad at expressing tender sentiments. The very word ‘love’ frightens me.
