More quotes by Andre Agassi
How lovely it is to dream while you are awake.
Andre Agassi
Well, I actually tell my son that I don't have any hair because he asked me the same question that I gave it to him when he was born, so he actually still believes that. He's five years old.

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

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
What you feel doesn’t matter in the end it’s what you do that makes you brave.

Tennis was always sort of a - a learning. It was a vehicle for me to discover a lot about myself.
Andre Agassi
What makes something special is not just what you have to gain, but what you feel there is to lose.
Andre Agassi
It's easier to live with disappointment than regret.
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.
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
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
All the good stuff is on the other side of tired.
