“I feel a bit awkward playing in a red shirt out at Wimbledon. But I don’t dislike it.”

Early in my career, I had no consistency. Now I’m the most consistent player on the tour. It feels pretty good.

A man who wins, is a man who thinks he can.

The more I lose, the more they believe they can beat me. But believing is not enough, you still have to beat me.

I love tennis! I’ve always felt like this because it is such a classy sport with a great, competitive flair to it.

Simple version for me is, umm, started bad and finished bad basically.

Every match I go into, I’m the huge favorite. I lose a set and it’s, like, crazy.

Watching a movie a couple of weeks ago. An American movie. I can’t remember the name, but it wasn’t even a sad movie. It caught me off guard. I was on an airplane.

Obviously, matches and all that stuff takes its toll on your body and so forth. But as you get sort of a bit older, a bit wiser, and a bit more experienced, you know also how to handle it.

Success is a nice thing because it always means you’ve taken a step forward and it gives you a sense of pride, which in turn gives you confidence and experience-a positive circle, so to speak.

The crowds are very important for tennis. It makes you play better, but it can also make you nervous and that’s the beauty of it.

With all the injury problems we have in men’s tennis at the moment, I’m happy to still be standing.

I was aware of how incredible the match was. Unfortunately there had to be a winner. From my point of view many left feeling sorry for me instead of being happy for Rafa. Which hurts.

One should just be able to play a perfect game.

I never waited 27 years, because 27 years ago I was just born. My parents never told me, ‘If you don’t win Roland Garros we take you to the orphanage.

The one thing you can do for sure is push the luck on your side.

You can be stubborn and successful or you can give it up a bit and change things around. For me it’s important to have a bit of both.

Put on your red shoes, and dance the blues.

Eloquence, n. The art of orally persuading fools that white is the color that it appears to be. It includes the gift of making any color appear white.

There are different flavours of sexiness.

Throwing on a black dress with black tights, cute booties, a great coat and throw a scarf over it. I think simple accessories and, if you want to make a pop, a great red lip.

Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful.

My oh my, have you ever noticed how beautiful you look doing what you love?

If we look at Abdel Nasser in Egypt as an Arab leader, he was secular.

People don’t need to feel scared about a leather pant. Think of it as a jean alternative: it’s the same thing. It’s almost like they’re your yoga pants, but they look chic.
