More quotes by Marat Safin
Right now my main aim is not to get injured any more. I am a little bit afraid of running and sliding because the ankle was so painful. But I am not a person who runs a lot, who spends a lot of energy on the court. If I am mentally OK, if nothing is bothering me and I want to play, then it is fine.
Marat Safin
One of the most important things, actually, when you're playing on grass, is to move.
Marat Safin
But normally when you talk to yourself [on court] you say 'I love you, you're a good guy, but don't miss next time, okay.'
Marat Safin
I pay the bills, I pay for everything.
Marat Safin

Lady, can you speak up a little bit? Indianapolis is a little far from Europe - I can't hear you.
Marat Safin

Marat Safin
I'm not a materialistic person.
Marat Safin
It's too many questions about what I'm going to do, why I'm retiring, and this and that. So I answer the same question, I don't know, a thousand times.
Marat Safin
If you're losing, just be a man, be a man and lose as a man. Don't pretend that you are injured and then you start running around and start to hit winners, and then all of a sudden you pull the hands up in the air after winning the match. I mean, what kind of sportsman are you? What kind of man are you?
Marat Safin
I was very competitive. I hated losing. No matter what, I had to win.
Marat Safin
It's a completely different situation right now because last year it was the time that nobody expected anything from me anything -- I had nothing to lose, basically I was starting from zero. And now I'm back in Top 5. And for me it's a different stage.
