I talked with Tom Hanks. I saw that movie 'Turner and Hooch' at least 50 times. It took all my guts to go up to him. I went up to him, I was like, 'Can I have a picture?' We talked acting he wanted to know what I was doing. We talked a little tennis. I mean, he knew all about myself and my sister.

Serena Williams
Victory is very, very sweet. It tastes better than any dessert you've ever had.
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 like to wear classic silhouettes and add a punch to it. I'll wear a high-waist legging and a super-crop top or a see-through top with a nice bra underneath. And I just always try to mix it up with heels or something.
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 don't want to be like some of those celebrities walking around, just so full of themselves. I always want to be down-to-earth, want to be a person like when you meet them, they're the same person that you think of them in the article or something.
