My motivation and aspiration is the same, being number one or being number five. So that's the truth. And my goal is the same - it's to always be happy playing, it's to enjoy the game and improve always.

More quotes by Rafael Nadal
I have always tried to avoid regrets. Could I have done differently some things in my career? Maybe.
Rafael Nadal
It's more a tennis problem than a mental problem. The transition is difficult. It depends how much time you have. Playing on grass can sometimes be a bit of a lottery.
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
I was passionate about soccer. I still am. Odd, though - playing soccer always made me much more anxious than playing tennis. On soccer days, I'd be out of bed by 6 in the morning, all nervous. But I was always calm when it was time for a tennis match. I still don't know why.
Rafael Nadal
What happened happened. Important thing is what can come.
Rafael Nadal

Rafael Nadal
I'll never have a tattoo - I just don't like them, and when you're old they can look a disaster. As for piercings, I don't like them on men.
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
I don't think about how going to be the match. I think about try to do the right things to win. I don't think about how easy can say or how tough can say. I go on court. I try my best.
Rafael Nadal
The bad thing about the [tennis] calendar is how it is made and obligates you to play tournaments all year. If you want to achieve the most you can (and) go as high up (in the rankings) as you can, you have to play from the start to the finish because there are important tournaments from the beginning to the end.
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
I am going to fight for important things.
Rafael Nadal
Something that works for one person could be a disadvantage to another.
Rafael Nadal
I love the beach. I love the sea. All my life I live within - in front of the sea.
Rafael Nadal
Losing is not my enemy..fear of losing is my enemy.
Rafael Nadal
You just try to play tough and focus point for point. Sounds so boring, but it's the right thing to do out there.
Rafael Nadal
If you want to belong to the best, you need good technique and, perhaps even more importantly, a good eye. If you see the ball sooner, you have more time to think about how and where to return it.
Rafael Nadal
Anyone could become a star, but everyone must be a human being.
Rafael Nadal
Honesty, willingness to exert oneself, friendship - all these things shaped me too.
Rafael Nadal
