I'm going to wait and I'm going to try a sixth time. And if the sixth doesn't happen, a seventh. It's going to be like this. That's the spirit of sport.
Rafael Nadal
I'd rather lose an argument than get into a long discussion in order to win it.
Rafael Nadal
It's important for the young players to practice other ball games as well, basketball or table tennis. On the tennis court, you can improve your eye through a kind of overexertion.
Rafael Nadal
If the girls and boys have talent and feel like working on themselves, they can become champions.
