Andre Agassi
It means a lot to you, to be out there. The highs are pretty high, and the lows are pretty low. You know, it's easy to feel like you let the team down. I mean, at the end of the day we still got to figure out a way to get through the tie.
Andre Agassi
He thinks it's his day, and when you think it's your day, it usually is.
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
Hitting the ball has never been my issue, so I can literally not pick up a racquet for two months and hit the ball, really, really nicely. I mean movement's always an issue.
Andre Agassi
That's the greatest applause that any person will ever receive in their life when it comes from their peers
Andre Agassi
I question myself every day. That's what I still find motivating about this. I don't have the answers, I don't pretend that I do just because I won the match. Just keep fighting and maybe something good happens.
Andre Agassi
Being number two sucks.
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 suppose you could never say never, but my experience would tell me that the most successful players in the world are gonna come from an environment that is more competitive at an early age.
