When you make the schedule, you're not planning on playing deep into every single week, or at least I haven't in the past. I'm not physically or mentally ready to pick up my bags and go to Monte Carlo. I definitely have to look at what's best for my chances at (at the French Open).

I've pretty much been portrayed as every style thing you can be. After Wimbledon you are Andy Everyman, who everybody is rooting for. I think the meat and potatoes of who I am hasn't been covered yet.

He [Vince Spadea] was about as down and out as you could see from a Top 20 player. Then to claw his way back through the minor leagues and do it the hard way where he wasn't young, wasn't getting wildcards, wasn't getting any help. I guess he decided he was just going to do it.

At one point in your life, you'll have the thing you want or the reasons why you don't.

I don't really rate press conferences. It's not as though I leave the room fist-pumping my way down the corridor after a good one.

I'm not the savior of men's tennis in America. I'm just a kid trying to win a few matches.

I don't care when people use the term 'one-Slam wonder' with me.

One little secret of the guys who have won one slam, is that we don't want other guys to win one because its like a bit of a special fraternity.

There's no home team in tennis, no built-in fan base, so the players have to step up and do their fair share.

I cook a little - I've never taken classes or anything - but enough to get by.

I think if I believe in something strongly enough, I'm pretty outspoken about it.

Why would I get a wild card into an American tournament, (as the) top-ranked American? Why would that happen? That makes too much sense. Maybe I should play more Davis Cup, that's the story. Oh wait, I do.

I'm not going to go run and hide because I'm catching some heat. I'm not going to stay at home and pout.
