I worked very hard and I earned all the attention I'm getting.

Boyfriends have to understand me and my needs. They have to know what I want out of my life and about my strict regime. I go to bed at 10pm and not later. I separate my professional and private lives.

It's that I have a good personality and am a good tennis player.

I am beautiful, famous and gorgeous.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

Yes, but don't forget I also have the luxury of the worlds finest band when it gets lonely.

When it's your chance to step up to the plate, just hit it out of the park, and everybody will forget about everything that came before.
