More quotes by Roger Federer
Once you find that peace, that place of peace and quiet, harmony and confidence, that's when you start playing your best.
Roger Federer
My dad said if you become a tennis professional just make sure you get into the top hundred, because you have to make a little bit of money. You make a living so you can pay your coaching and, you know, your travels.
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
My wife doesn't like Football but she watches it just for Messi.
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 let the evening unfold. I'm the sort of guy who likes to sit in the chair and look at the wine glass.
Roger Federer
For me, it's important that a fan can buy something that is related to me. Like in soccer, you buy a shirt and it's got somebody's name on the back. That's kind of a cool thing.
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
I feel a bit awkward playing in a red shirt out at Wimbledon. But I don't dislike it.
Roger Federer
You live during the match, and you have strong emotions, but you don't want to get too overexcited. My body's totally flat now. I cannot move anymore. I'm totally exhausted, just because of the tension out there.
Roger Federer
I'm not the kind of guy who wakes up angry.
Roger Federer
Winning or losing, it's always something special and something you'll remember, even more so when the match was as dramatic as it was today. It's even more memorable when I see my kids there with my wife and everything. That's what touched me the most, to be quite honest. The disappointment of the match itself went pretty quickly.
Roger Federer
Tennis can be a very frustrating sport. There is no way around the hard work. Embrace it. You have to put in the hours because there is always something you can improve. [Y]ou have to put in a lot of sacrifice and effort for sometimes little reward but you have to know that, if you put in the right effort, the reward will come.
Roger Federer
With all the injury problems we have in men's tennis at the moment, I'm happy to still be standing.
Roger Federer
I am a very positive thinker, and I think that is what helps me the most in difficult moments.
Roger Federer
The one thing you can do for sure is push the luck on your side
Roger Federer
You can be stubborn and successful or you can give it up a bit and change things around. For me it's important to have a bit of both.
Roger Federer
Maybe further down the road in my career, in a couple of years when I'm maybe not that fast any more around the court, then maybe it would be good to come to the net a little bit more often
Roger Federer
The crowds are very important for tennis. It makes you play better, but it can also make you nervous and that's the beauty of it.
Roger Federer
You always want to win. That is why you play tennis, because you love the sport and try to be the best you can at it.
Roger Federer
