More quotes by Marat Safin
I'm not a materialistic person.
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
I definitely want to get out of tennis and try something completely different.
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
Whenever I am losing, it's like, 'It's his fault'. And whenever I'm winning it's like, 'That's us'. That's the team, the people.
Marat Safin

Everything is possible in this life.
Marat Safin
If you're losing, just be a man be a man and lose as a man.
Marat Safin

Marat Safin
I was very competitive. I hated losing. No matter what, I had to win.
Marat Safin
You can find flaws in Agassi and Sampras, but Federer has none.
Marat Safin
There wasn't a rich father or rich family that paid for everything that I have right now, so I worked my way.
Marat Safin
Don't get too excited when I am winning, and don't get too depressed when I am losing. Just keep it cool.
Marat Safin
New York is a fantastic city.
Marat Safin
You have to wake up and you have to run if you want to survive.
Marat Safin
Everybody is smarter from outside of the court.
Marat Safin
You cannot take all the chances you get.
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
