I still take it seriously, but once I go out there I think I've got more relaxed and I think it shows.

I knew that maybe I couldn't be playing again, but I just wanted to get in physical shape.

The tennis wasn't really very much on my mind, so it wasn't like I was thinking about it all the time.

I think it takes people to get to know you and the recognition comes over time.

It shifted attention away from that and I've never been someone who liked the attention from the media anyway.

I appreciate very much being injury-free.

It's so difficult to find time besides the tennis.

I never look back, I look forward.

I had a lot of different thoughts and ideas and always to transform, but I'm trying certain things that I feel my heart is really going for and that was one of the things that I initiated a few months ago.

I still take it seriously, but once I go out there I think I've got more relaxed and I think it shows.

Age, what is it? It's not a figure that has ever meant anything to me.

Grass is a surface I have always loved, Wimbledon is a tournament I have always loved.

I am a person who sticks to her word.

I don't like the word 'businesswoman.' Perhaps 'committed mother' would be the best description.

I don't wake up every day and think about which tournaments I won and which titles I hold. It's something I don't care about.

I have always been guided by striving to show the best that I could. That is what kept me going in tennis and it is the same now.

I never hanker after the past - I prefer to devote myself to new tasks.

I suppose it's amazing how quick life goes by when you have children.

I've thrown away lots of my old diaries - you never know who might get their hands on them. But I have kept a few notes on the good old days.

If you go to a big city anywhere in the world and you need a doctor, just ask me. I can tell you who's good and who's bad. I've even considered writing a guidebook.

My big dream was to work as a photographer for 'National Geographic.'

When you lose a couple of times, it makes you realize how difficult it is to win.

You can have a certain arrogance, and I think that's fine, but what you should never lose is the respect for the others.

You cannot compare your athletic achievement to the importance of children and giving them a safe environment in which to grow up and enjoy life.

When you lose a couple of times it makes you realize how difficult it is to win.

I don't ever look back. I look forward.

I don't get this whole super-skinny obsession. I really think women look more beautiful when they let their curves show.

I think the thing that has sort of always separated me, even from when I was younger, is my ability to score goals.

I've lived such a great, fantastic life already, but there's still so much more.

Human nature is so constructed that it gives affection most readily to those who seem least to demand it.

Diplomacy is not merely talking somebody into something its talking to somebody from a position of strength. You put your power on the table to open up the conversation thats diplomacy.

Gee, its lonesome in the outfield. It's hard to keep awake with nothing to do.

ISIS is the greatest threat.

Acting is my job.

I've seen so many photographers rush to do books the minute they start shooting, but one great thing about photography is that the images don't go away, so the more I sit with these images, the more I learn which ones have had the most impact.

Make a conscious effort to loosen your hands and let your arms feel soft when you're at address. Take the club back a bit shorter, and feel as if you're cracking a whip on the way down - not tensing up to smash something hard.

I was in the closet, so to speak, until after the fifth year when I was cancer-free.

If you were a crayon what color would you most like to make out with

I was excellent. Everybody loved me. I love myself, and I like bums.

I think the next president needs to lead on cultural issues and experience, particularly on foreign policy.

We learn from history that we do not learn from history.

There's a bit more of a safe distance when you're making a narrative movie, a bit more perspective. Audiences can separate themselves from the harsh reality of the facts a little bit more and think: 'Okay, how do I consider this?'

It's nice to film in somewhere that you actually love being. Usually, you're in a studio for months on end, and you never see any daylight, so you really make the most of it.

I'm not saying I'm the only Jewish person who cares about Palestinian people, but unfortunately, their voices are not necessarily heard as loudly as they should be.

Every one must understand that, whatever be the evil of slavery, it is not increased by its diffusion. Every one familiar with it knows that it is in proportion to its sparseness that it becomes less objectionable. Wherever there is an immediate connexion between the master and slave, whatever there is of harshness in the system is diminished.

As you get older and wiser you realize that when people are given anything without having to earn it (unless they are physically or mentally utterly incapable of earning anything), they become ungrateful and lazy. They also become less happy.

My father was a successful real estate developer, and he was a very tough man but a good man. My father would always praise me. He always thought I was the smartest person.

If I get to wrapped up in how I have to be, or what I have to do, things gradually get worse and worse.

When we started in the early '60s, football had a little bit of a tradition. But, they didn't have a mythology. And NFL Films, through our music and our scripts and our photography, created a mythology for the sport.
