More quotes by Serena Williams
I'm proud to have opened [two] schools in Africa and one in Jamaica [through the Serena Williams Fund and its partners]. I was given a lot. I was given two parents. That's already starting above a lot of kids. And then I was given the opportunity to play tennis and parents who supported that. I feel I can give back.
Serena Williams
It's so great to have that opportunity with so many young American players coming up now. It's just so exciting. We have to root for the home country.
Serena Williams
Who says that your thirties is when you're supposed to be done? I would like to know who made that rule!
Serena Williams
If I'm winning, I have to act like I'm not bored. If it's A tough match, I have to act like I'm having A good time. I'm a drama queen.
Serena Williams
People see me on the court only as a superhero, grunting and winning. They think you're a robot, and I'm not.
Serena Williams
I can't become satisfied, because if I get satisfied, I'll be like, Oh, I've won Wimbledon, I've won the U.S. Open. Now can I relax. But now people are really going to be fighting to beat me.
Serena Williams
I decided I can't pay a person to rewind time, so I may as well get over it.
Serena Williams
If Plan A isn't working, I have Plan B, Plan C, and even Plan D.
Serena Williams
I don't have anything to prove ever, ever in my life. If I have something to prove, what does that mean for everyone else? And I think everyone should have that attitude. You just have to prove to yourself that you can go out there and be the best that you can be and not prove anything to anyone.
Serena Williams
I've always considered myself the best and the top. I never considered that I was out of it.
Serena Williams
I think it's bad when people start booing between serves.
Serena Williams
It's amazing, but I guess that happens when you become overly famous. Every week now, I get more famous.
Serena Williams
I don't like to lose-at anything... Yet I've grown most not from victories, but setbacks. If winning is God's reward, then losing is how he teaches us.
Serena Williams
You can be whatever size you are, and you can be beautiful both inside and out. We're always told what's beautiful and what's not, and that's not right.
Serena Williams
There are people who live, breathe and dress tennis.
Serena Williams
I just could never have imagined that I would be mentioned with Chris Evert or with Martina Navratilova, because I was just a kid with a dream and a racquet. Living in Compton, you know, this never happened before.
Serena Williams
There's one thing I'm really good at, and that's hitting the ball over a net, in a box. I'm excellent.
Serena Williams
I need to be at my peak and my best is holding up the trophy. Anything less I wouldn't be really excited about. So that's all I can focus on.
Serena Williams
My fridge is really just vegan: coconut water, Gatorade (my favorite!), cucumbers, mint, kale, vegetables, ginger, and wheat grass.
Serena Williams
Most people that do play nowadays hit really hard. It was good to get someone that hit really hard early on.
