It's easier to live with disappointment than regret.
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
I'm going to go down swinging... I'm sure as heck not going to go home and say I had a bad tournament.
Andre Agassi
A strong body listens. It obeys. A weak body commands. If your body is weak it tells you what to do. If your body is strong it'll actually listen to you when you tell it to do something. If you build it right you can overcome some of the obstacles of age and recovery.
Andre Agassi
Nothing can substitute for just plain hard work
Andre Agassi
Yes, for a long time but I admired her and respected everything that I could sort of see in her from a distance, the pillars of her life, the loyalties, the relationships. It all got my interest and also the looks.
Andre Agassi
Tennis was always sort of a - a learning. It was a vehicle for me to discover a lot about myself. And the things that I sort of discovered at times I not only didn't want to see it for myself but I certainly didn't want millions of people to see it.
Andre Agassi
I've been criticized for not having perspective in the past and I thought that of myself many times but not there.
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
I think one of the greatest joys I have now in my career and in my profession is to be playing at an age where I can appreciate it more than I used to... It's a whole different lens you look through the older you get.
Andre Agassi
Being number two sucks.
Andre Agassi
In tennis you're on an island. Of all the games men and women play, tennis is the closest to solitary confinement.
Andre Agassi
If you're ranked number one in the world it's because you've earned it, and I think the only way to really get there is to have that ability and to have it nurtured in a very competitive environment at an early age.
Andre Agassi
People who are interested with me have for sure gotten older over the years, for example, grandparents are coming up to me telling me they grew up watching me.
Andre Agassi
I play tennis for a living even though I hate tennis, hate it with a dark and secret passion and always have.
Andre Agassi
It's shocking how little there is to do with tennis when you're just thinking about nothing except winning every point.
Andre Agassi

Andre Agassi
Life will throw everything but the kitchen sink in your path, and then it will throw the kitchen sink. It's your job to avoid the obstacles. If you let them stop you or distract you, you're not doing your job, and failing to do your job will cause regrets that paralyze you more than a bad back.
Andre Agassi
No athletes talk to themselves like tennis players. Pitchers, golfers, goalkeepers, they mutter to themselves, but tennis players talk to themselves-and answer. Tennis players look like lunatics in a public square.
Andre Agassi
I had my moments for sure but I wasn't confrontational. And sometimes you get on the court and you'd find yourself very confrontational. It was all a discovery.
