Venus told me the other day that champions don't get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn't get nervous and just do the best I can.

More quotes by Serena Williams
I always say that when I'm playing well, no one can beat me. I'm not just saying that to sound full of myself or anything, but it's true.
Serena Williams
I don't know if I've had my share of drama, but I've definitely had my share of hard times.
Serena Williams
It's me, and I love me. I learned to love me. I've been like this my whole life, and I embrace me. I love how I look. I love that I'm a full woman and I'm strong and I'm powerful and I'm beautiful at the same time. There's nothing wrong with that.
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
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 want to end my career and then start something. I like to do something while my career is still hot and I've always enjoyed designing.
Serena Williams
I'm like a chameleon. I can kind of change and get my game going to whatever the situation is. If I play well, which I don't think I've even reached yet at all in this tournament, it's really hard for anyone on the women's tour to beat me.
Serena Williams
I am not a robot. I have a heart and I bleed.
Serena Williams
I played pretty well in my twenties, don't get me wrong! But my consistency is better [in my thirties], my momentum is better, my wins are quicker.
Serena Williams
I'm thankful to my family, friends, and fans for all of their support.
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
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
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 know a lot of people who are 12 and doing things they shouldnt be doing. Whether youre an actress or a singer, its always the sexier ones that are selling more tickets or selling more albums.
Serena Williams
I was having an out-of-body experience, it was so hot. I felt I was watching someone play in a blue dress, and it wasn't me.
Serena Williams
I think you have to love yourself before you fall in love. I'm still learning to love myself.
Serena Williams
I'm always learning new things.
Serena Williams
I love metaphors. I've never been on this train. ... If I'm standing on the middle of a track, I'm definitely going to get derailed. I have to make sure that I'm on the train and not in front of it.
Serena Williams
Dad thanks for leaning in by helping me become a role model for young girls.
Serena Williams
My smile is my favorite part of my body. I think a smile can make your whole body. I want women to know that it's ok. That you can be whatever size you are and be beautiful inside and out.
