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.

More quotes by Serena Williams
It's always good to get a smaller tournament under your belt so that by the time you get to the Slams, you have a lot of experience.
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 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
A lifetime with Venus Williams will not be enough.
Serena Williams
When I'm 32? Hopefully I'll have made my mark with a few different movies, some scary ones and some comedies. I'm really funny, I have a great personality on the camera.
Serena Williams
I want it to be more natural. Right now it feels really forced. Seems like I've never done a curtsy before, which may be true. But I'm looking forward to nailing it.
Serena Williams
Tennis is my job, but it's not my life.
Serena Williams
I always ask my dad why wasn't I a lefty? Even when I was younger I wanted to be lefty. I could have been really good.
