More quotes by Novak Djokovic
I got married, going to become father soon, being No. 1 in the sport that I love with all my heart. I mean, it's pretty awesome.
Novak Djokovic
Nobody actually played tennis in my family.
Novak Djokovic
My father believed in me many times more than I believed in myself.
Novak Djokovic
Imagine a part of the U.S.A., from which the U.S.A. started - where is the cradle of your history? This is Kosovo for Serbia.
Novak Djokovic
I love being around people who care about me, and I care about them.
Novak Djokovic
The fact that nobody played tennis in my family and you'd say by chance they make three tennis courts in front of the restaurant that my family owned when I was 4, I think that's a destiny. That's kind of life circumstances that kind of come together for you to become who you want to become.
Novak Djokovic
I'm a happy man, because I am successful in what I do, of course but what makes me most happy is I have people around me that I love and who love me back. This, for me, is the most important thing. Nobody likes to be alone.
Novak Djokovic
Well, I do feel that I carry the responsibility of representing my country wherever I am, and this responsibility came with the success that I had in last couple of years, not just myself but the whole group of tennis players that comes from Serbia. And athletes in general are, in this moment, the biggest ambassadors that our country has.
Novak Djokovic
My priority, the most important thing in my life is my family, my wife and my son.
Novak Djokovic
My mother is a special story. She went through so much to bring us up, four men at home, especially when our country was going through really difficult times.
Novak Djokovic
The confidence is there, the game is there, but physically you can't fight nature sometimes. You can't do much about it.
Novak Djokovic
Not everybody can like what I do, and if you feel that somebody is coming up closer to you and starting the rivalry and everything, you maybe change your position to him.
Novak Djokovic
My father never talked about the sacrifices that the family made for me.
Novak Djokovic
You can not say you're unhappy because you have to travel, have to play this tournament, having to play sports ... You can't because you chose to play it and you love it. I'm tremendously grateful for the support I have received from my family and the close ones.
Novak Djokovic
I don't think there has been enough communication between the players and the tournaments. In one sense it's just as much the players' fault. Players talk between each other and in the locker room about things that can be improved and then when the time comes to talk and really do something about it they stop.
Novak Djokovic
I think if you do not enjoy your time, your life, if you do not live intensely and do not spend time with your family, in one way or another it will be reflected in your career.
Novak Djokovic
Mangling my racket and an odd swearword on the court is not something I am proud of and it shouldn't happen, but even my coaches have told me that it's sometimes better to let it all out, the anger inside you, because keeping it bottled would just eat you up in the long term.
Novak Djokovic
Those born into poverty or on the margins of society require our extra support to realize their dreams.
Novak Djokovic
I think luck falls on not just the brave but also the ones who believe they belong there.
Novak Djokovic
I had a nice childhood. War and all the experiences affected me as a person and helped me to grow, to change.
Novak Djokovic
