More quotes by Roger Federer
Oh, my God, I don't think any player can look forward to or expect to a career of so many Grand Slam wins or title wins or being so long at the top of the game.
Roger Federer
In the locker room I was getting impatient to get on the court, I had to warm up several times.
Roger Federer
A man who wins, is a man who thinks he can.

For me, I'm in the driver's seat I'm No. 1 in the world. I've won the last couple of meetings, and I've won the big tournaments lately. Whoever comes, I'll try to beat him. But it's almost up to me to decide who's my rival, isn't it?
Roger Federer
I went to Phuket already, but would love to go to Chiang Mai one day.
Roger Federer
I'm at the top of my game so, when I win or lose, I don't freak out...I don't think we can call it a rivalry yet. There's just to many great players around.
Roger Federer

When I won in 2003, never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would win Wimbledon and have my kids seeing me lift the trophy, so this is pretty surreal. And yeah, I was almost shocked in the moment that it all came together so nicely.
Roger Federer
Before, I guess, mum and dad were everything, but now, in my case, I had two new girls and all of a sudden they're completely dependent on you and there's a third generation. It's a funny shift all of a sudden. You have the babies, you have yourself and then you have your parents.
Roger Federer
Previously I always thought it was just tactical and technique, but every match has become almost mental and physical - I try to push myself to move well. I try to push myself not to get upset and stay positive, and that's what my biggest improvement is over all those years. Under pressure I can see things very clear.
Roger Federer
I'm shocked every time that I've reached so many finals or won against so many players or whatever record it is. It strikes me and makes me obviously very happy and very proud that I've been able to do it for so many years at the highest of levels.
Roger Federer
I'm playing great tennis. I'm enjoying the tour, having fun with the fans off the court. I'm loving it now.
Roger Federer
When I think of the Olympics I only think of good things. I think of what a great event it is and what it has done for me and my career, and changed my personal life, too.
Roger Federer
I've always been aware that the image you patiently construct for an entire career can be ruined in a minute. It scares you a bit, but that's the way things are.
Roger Federer
What I think I've been able to do well over the years is play with pain, play with problems, play in all sorts of conditions.
Roger Federer
You've never seen me dance, have you?
Roger Federer
When I was 12 years old, I was just horrible. My parents were ashamed to watch my matches. I would play on a court at the local club and they would watch from the balcony. They would scream, 'Be quiet' to me and I would scream back, 'Go and have a drink. Leave me alone.' Then we would drive home in a very quiet car. No one speaking to each other.
Roger Federer
I have two lives, and all the problems I might have, I feel like I drop them once I step on to the match court.
Roger Federer
The one thing you can do for sure is push the luck on your side
