More quotes by Marat Safin
New York is a fantastic city.
Marat Safin
I could go and make commercials left and right and pretend like I am a celebrity, but that is not me.
Marat Safin
No matter what happens, tennis is still tennis: You can see a lot of great matches, a lot of new people.
Marat Safin

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.
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
The Olympics is not for tennis and tennis does not need the Olympics. It is not my goal in life to win a gold medal.
Marat Safin
You cannot take all the chances you get.
Marat Safin
I'm not a materialistic person.
Marat Safin
I love tennis, but I just don't like grass.
Marat Safin
I'm not fighting with myself.
Marat Safin
You have to wake up and you have to run if you want to survive.
Marat Safin
I'm different than another person who wants to lay back and do nothing for rest of the life and talk nonsense on ESPN... I will not do that. I want to achieve something else.
Marat Safin
It's frustrating when you want to play but can't. I didn't touch a racket for three weeks and when I started playing again last week, I still felt some pain in my wrist.
Marat Safin
I don't care about losses anymore.
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 definitely want to get out of tennis and try something completely different.
Marat Safin
If you're losing, just be a man be a man and lose as a man.
