More quotes by Andre Agassi
All the good stuff is on the other side of tired.
Andre Agassi
This sport has given me so much that my hope would be to give back as much as I can for as long as I can.
Andre Agassi
Every now and then I will play I try to focus on charitable work. I might do it because it's an offer I can't refuse, so I rally and try to stay in shape and keep myself active.
Andre Agassi
How lovely it is to dream while you are awake.
Andre Agassi
I always felt tennis and winning was a byproduct of doing everything right.
Andre Agassi
It's easier to live with disappointment than regret.
Andre Agassi
Nothing can substitute for just plain hard work. I had to put in the time to get back. And it was a grind. It meant training and sweating every day. But I was completely committed to working out to prove to myself that I still could do it.
Andre Agassi
My only good result in 1997 was marrying Brooke Shields.
Andre Agassi
If I don't do what I need to do to win, I won't win, no matter who is on the other side of the net.
Andre Agassi
My accomplishments do not live up to my tennis game. Most people have to work really hard and win some big matches, and then they get money and popularity. For me it has been the reverse of everybody else. The exact opposite.
Andre Agassi
Few of us are granted the grace to know ourselves, and until we do, maybe the best we can do is be consistent.
Andre Agassi
You don't cheat anybody out of their experience, whatever it is.
Andre Agassi
My father actually moved out from Chicago just so he could play tennis 365 days a year, so it was - it was a place we played every day. We played before school. We played after school. We woke up. We played tennis. We brushed our teeth in that order.
Andre Agassi
It has meant a lot to me to challenge the best players in the world and to beat them. And it means a lot to me to be out here and fighting for the title and, you know, it hurts not to win it.
Andre Agassi
You have to have the mentality of executing your game when you don't feel like there's a lot of hope. I think the best feeling is when somebody pushes you to the limit and you dig down a little bit extra. By the same token, you also need a little luck. Sometimes they come together.
Andre Agassi
I don't always choose to stay fit by playing tennis, because that comes with its own wear-and-tear.
Andre Agassi
When I was 7 years old I saw Jimmy Connors make someone carry his bag, as though he were Julius Caesar. I vowed then and there that I would always carry my own.
Andre Agassi
Freed from the thoughts of winning, I instantly play better. I stop thinking, start feeling. My shots become a half-second quicker, my decisions become the product of instinct rather than logic.
Andre Agassi
Big dreams are so damn tiring.
Andre Agassi
Pride is bad, stress is good. I don't want to feel confident. I want to feel rage. Endless, all consuming rage.
Andre Agassi
