I like putting money back into what made my life, and tennis has been great to me.
Billie Jean King
Reputation is what others think about you. What's far more important is character, because that is what you think about yourself.

Billie Jean King
I have often been asked whether I am a women or an athlete. The question is absurd. Men are not asked that. I am an athlete. I am a women.
Billie Jean King
Being Number One isn't everything to me, but for those few hours on the court it's way ahead of whatever's in second place.
Billie Jean King
I always respect right off the bat because we are human, but then over time you learn who the person truly is, just like they learn about you. Hope it works out really well, and you hope that builds a stronger connection over time. You can't be friends with everybody.
Billie Jean King
I like entrepreneurial people I like people who take risks.
