The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.

What these guys are doing is great for Argentinean tennis. This is motivating other people.

For me retiring wasn't hard once I knew that that was the decision I was going to make.

I felt nobody would understand what was going on in my mind.

It was very hard for me to practice and enjoy my tennis, and I didn't know the why, so I worked with psychologists to try and see what was happening. They pushed me really hard.

I want children, but at the moment the liberty I have now finally, has a far too high value.

I played Mary Joe Fernandez in the semifinals. She was winning the first set. Second set was very close. I started to play this aggressive game. I think I surprised them.

It's a great moment for Argentinean tennis, more on the men's side. I would like to see more on the women's side. I think we have to work a little bit more on that.

I was formerly so stuck into plans. I can now live more spontaneously. This I want not yet to give away.

I think in the lifetime of a tennis player there are many times where you feel that tremendous confidence.

When I got to match point in the final I was afraid I'd be a little nervous, but I just said, You have to stay focused, just think about what you have to do.

I was a very shy and introverted person, and it was hard for me to talk to people and make relationships.

That was one of those moments where I felt so confident. I played three matches in the same day.

I was feeling a lot of confidence, so I wanted to take advantage of that and keep playing.

I want not, that everybody hears about. Then I can't longer be myself.

The difficult part was to tell the world that I was finishing.

I carried through well with my tennis. I got the respect by usage of the tennis racket.

I never thought tennis was going to give me so much satisfaction.

It's amazing, it doesn't feel like it has been 10 years since retirement.

Now I have the bravery to do fine things.

I'm having a good time. Managing my things takes a lot of time.

I lost more then 6 kilograms when I ceased with the top sport. That were all muscles. They are now gone.

I can't laugh, be happy, present myself at any prize and also win on the centre court.

I work out in a studio. Every day, regardless where I am, at least two hours. I need it. I can't cease it.

I served, she came to the net, it was a passing shot.

Tennis has had a very positive impact on my life.

Regarding the Hall of Fame, when they decided I was going to be one of the possible candidates, when I heard that, I was so thrilled. You're always hoping for something like that.

When I finally held the trophy, it was just how I imagined it would be.

I have an office in Argentina, I go there every day, so I work.

I travel a lot to promote the perfumes and to do the commercials.

There were so much affairs of me created by the media... of course I was not always a true single. I had some relations, once also to a famous pop star.

It came so soon and so fast. It's just overwhelming. Every time I think about it, I just can't believe it.

I didn't know what was going through my mind.

When I lose a match, I know that I lose on the court and not in life.

Johnny Winter is one of the best blues players in the world. He's very underrated.

The world is... the natural setting of, and field for, all my thoughts and all my explicit perceptions. Truth does not inhabit only the inner man, or more accurately, there is no inner man, man is in the world, and only in the world does he know himself.

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.

Well concerning the world records that I did, I think it helps a lot to me, yeah. I think it's a very individual thing because I heard some people say, like, oh I don't like it at all. But I definitely, for me it really made a big difference.

Christians should never fail to sense the operation of an angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle's light.

I do believe there are leaders who are like lightning and they come along and they lead. The Lincolns of the world, the Alexander the Greats, they do exist. They have existed.

The people of England are the most enthusiastic in the world.

You've got to realize. In the western world, regardless of what color you are, what title the music is, it's all played by the same notes.

Most fathers don't see the war within the daughter, her struggles with conflicting images of the idealized and flawed father, her temptation both to retreat to Daddy's lap and protection and to push out of his embrace to that of beau and the world beyond home.

Scientific corporations might well become almost independent states and be enabled to undertake their largest experiments without consulting the outside world - a world which would be less and less able to judge what the experiments were about.

To see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower Hold infinity in the palms of your hand and eternity in an hour.

The painter... does not fit the paints to the world. He most certainly does not fit the world to himself. He fits himself to the paint. The self is the servant who bears the paintbox and its inherited contents.

The world has fundamentally changed. It fundamentally changed when the Berlin Wall came down and the 'evil empire' ceased to exist. We are engaged around the world whether we like it or not.

I think having eight kids evens things out a bit. You learn about the world; you learn about the world; you learn you've got to get along. We're all - if anything - very adjustable.

The bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity.
