More quotes by Rafael Nadal
I am not the most courageous guy in the world outside of the court.
Rafael Nadal
I was shy when I was a kid, I was very shy, but now I think I've improved a lot. I can speak OK with the media and with the people. My English is still bad but I feel a little bit better now than before.
Rafael Nadal
If you are playing bad you are going to lose here, on clay, on ice, or on the beach.
Rafael Nadal
I would like to believe there is a God, but I think it is better to say I'm not sure there is a God and live your life with kindness and respect for people than to say I know there is a God and then do bad things.
Rafael Nadal
As a tennis player you can win and you can lose, and you have to be ready for both. I practised self-control as a kid. But as you get older they both - winning and losing - get easier.
Rafael Nadal
I always had the theory that the most important thing is be happy, enjoy what are you doing, and be fresh mentally.
Rafael Nadal
The only way of finding a solution is to fight back, to move, to run, and to control that pressure.
Rafael Nadal
In Majorca, I can be myself. I go to the supermarket and the cinema, and I am just Rafa. Everyone knows me, and it is no big deal. I can go all day - no photographs.
Rafael Nadal
When one gets beaten by somebody better, one has to know how to lose with humility. Sure, I could have served better. Sure, I could have hit my forehand harder. But the truth was this was like an avalanche, and there was no way to stop it.
Rafael Nadal
He's a fantastic player and he's going to be around so much longer so I'm happy with every one I get before he takes them all
Rafael Nadal
I just wanted to see how the shorts felt again.
Rafael Nadal
I play because I have fun, if I don't have fun on the court, there is something wrong. I am just a 19 year old boy that likes to do what he likes, nothing else.
Rafael Nadal
I am very lucky because when I come back home, I have a completely normal life. I can relax, playing golf, fishing - doing what I want. I know when I finish a tournament, I am going to relax at home.
Rafael Nadal
It's hard to say, 'I don't believe in God.' I would love to know if God exists. But it's a very difficult thing for me to believe.
Rafael Nadal
Don't think about being the number one in the world, try instead to get through today's program as well as you can. Then we will see whether one day you'll end up as number one or number 100.
Rafael Nadal
I am going to fight for important things.
Rafael Nadal
I'm not the best player in the history of tennis. I think I'm amongst the best. That's true. That's enough for me.
Rafael Nadal
I admire a lot of people, but in terms of sport I've always loved the mentality of Tiger Woods on a golf course. I always love his eyes when he's setting himself and focusing on his decision he has a really strong, focused face and believes that he can make the shot.
Rafael Nadal
I've stayed calm when I'm winning and I've stayed calm when I've lost. Tennis is a sport where we have a lot of tournaments every week, so you can't celebrate a lot when you have big victories, and you cannot get too down when you're losing, as in a few days you'll be in the next tournament and you'll have to be ready with that.
Rafael Nadal
The glory is being happy. The glory is not winning here or winning there. The glory is enjoying practicing, enjoy every day, enjoying to work hard, trying to be a better player than before.
Rafael Nadal
