More quotes by Andre Agassi
Tennis is a very objective sport in the sense that the scoreboard doesn't lie.
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
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

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 feel old when I see mousse in my opponent's hair.
Andre Agassi
My only good result in 1997 was marrying Brooke Shields.
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
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
He thinks it's his day, and when you think it's your day, it usually is.
Andre Agassi
But, I would say when I was four years old and I was at the Alan King Tennis Tournament and I was hitting with all the pros that would come to town. They would get me on the court or take notice and that stayed with me.
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
Success doesn't always come in the form of a trophy. Keep striving for success.
Andre Agassi
It's easier to live with disappointment than regret.
Andre Agassi
I got a hundred bucks says my baby beats Pete's baby. I just think genetics are in my favour.
Andre Agassi
First of all, let me say, 1:15 in the morning, for 20,000 people to still be here, I wasn't the winner, tennis was. That's awesome. I don't know if I've ever felt so good here before.
