I used to, like, hit for a half hour and then go eat Cheetos the rest of the day, come out and drill forehands. Now I'm really trying to make it happen, being professional, really going for it, and I miss my Cheetos.

More quotes by Andy Roddick
Is that the longest fifth set ever? It was? So, no, I've never played one longer than that!
Andy Roddick
No, actually I wanted to play five. I definitely wanted to try to lose that fourth set and test the waters in the fifth.
Andy Roddick
If I can break one out of every three return games, I'm going to give myself a shot in a lot of matches.
Andy Roddick
I think I have a lot of room for improvement. My serve is okay, but I need to work on a lot of things: return, transition game, backhand.
Andy Roddick
I've become better at the net. I've got a 135 mph serve so I'd be stupid not to follow that in. Overall I'm a better player than I was last year.
Andy Roddick
My serve has killed a small dog ... I'm joking, I'm joking! The dog was huge!
Andy Roddick
I'm just glad to see that Pete (Sampras) shut everyone up last year. That was satisfying. You can't bag on guys like Pete or Tiger (Woods) or Michael Jordan. They can play as long as they want, they can do whatever they want. Nobody should be able to tell them differently.
Andy Roddick
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).
Andy Roddick
I used to go to the US Open on my birthdays and sit in the nosebleeds.
Andy Roddick
Most players who play tennis love the game. But I think you also have to respect it. You want to do everything you can in your power to do your best. And for me, I know I get insane guilt if I go home at the end of the day and don't feel I've done everything I can. If I know I could have done something better, I have this uneasy feeling.
Andy Roddick
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.
Andy Roddick
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.
Andy Roddick
I don't want to live and die with every point that's being played out there now. I'm going to let my coach live and die with every point.
Andy Roddick
Almost everybody's here doing the same thing. Who am I to come up with an excuse when there's 64 other players here doing the same thing? 63 others, sorry.
Andy Roddick
I like grass, I enjoy it and it suits my game.
Andy Roddick
Having two older brothers is a healthy reminder that you're always closer to the bottom than you are to the top.
Andy Roddick
I cook a little - I've never taken classes or anything - but enough to get by.
Andy Roddick
There's no doubt there are issues with clay. Our issues have issues that are issues right now. That's not a secret.
Andy Roddick
I don't know that I've ever been someone who's interested in existing on tour. I have a lot of interests and a lot of other things that excite me.
Andy Roddick
I'm an emotional player ... I like to leave it out there.
