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.

More quotes by Andre Agassi
Sometimes it's just harder to remind yourself about what you're doing and why you're doing it... Other times, you have a great desire for it, but physically you're not responding the way you want. That presents other challenges. Then sometimes it all comes together.
Andre Agassi
I had moments of my actions and words not reflecting who it is I am - if that defines a punk, then yes, absolutely.
Andre Agassi
All the good stuff is on the other side of tired.
Andre Agassi
I've been motivated by overcoming challenge and overcoming the hurdles and obstacles that face me. There still is plenty out there to get motivated by.
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
Tennis uses the language of life. Advantage, service, fault, break, love - the basic elements of tennis are those of everyday existence, because every match is a life in miniature.
Andre Agassi

I've been cheered by thousands, booed by thousands, but nothing feels as bad as the booing inside your own head during those ten minutes before you fall asleep.
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
You'll hear a lot of applause in your life, but none will mean more to you than that applause from your peers. I hope each of you hears that at the end.
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
Tennis is a very objective sport in the sense that the scoreboard doesn't lie.
Andre Agassi
I feel old when I see mousse in my opponent's hair.
Andre Agassi
A great coach can lead you to a place where you don't need him any more.
Andre Agassi
Success doesn't always come in the form of a trophy. Keep striving for success.
Andre Agassi
This is the only perfection there is, the perfection of helping others.
Andre Agassi
Hitting a ball dead perfect - the only peace.
Andre Agassi
The great part about tennis is you can't run out the clock.... As long as we were still playing, I had a chance.
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.
