I try not to be protected. Because I feel like you can become a little bit of a robot. That's not who I am. And I don't want to be monotone. It's important to be yourself, whatever the cost.

More quotes by 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
Tennis just a game, family is forever.
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.
Serena Williams
I'm an actress, model and athlete, and I'd put athlete third on the list.
Serena Williams
I'm playing to around 30% of my potential - you'd be shocked at what I could do.

I got involved in the design process a long time ago. I've been working with their main designer [Berlei] for a while. It's been really fun all around.
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'm not used to crying. It's a little difficult. All my life I've had to fight. It's just another fight I'm going to have to learn how to win, that's all. I'm just going to have to keep smiling.
Serena Williams
I never left my roots. You can identify me as someone that didn't become high and mighty. Humility is a defining [trait] all of us can forever learn, and I try to be as humble as anyone can be.
Serena Williams
Legendary? I don't know. I'm just Serena.
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
I'm really super feminine, and I'm really soft. I'm very sensitive, I realized.
Serena Williams
Victory is very, very sweet. It tastes better than any dessert you've ever had.
Serena Williams
I always believe I can beat the best, achieve the best. I always see myself in the top position.
Serena Williams
I really think a champion is defined not by their wins but by how they can recover when they fall
Serena Williams
I feel as a brand I'm here to be around for a long time.
Serena Williams
I'm an athlete and I'm black, and a lot of black athletes go broke. I do not want to become a statistic, so maybe I overcompensate. But I'm paranoid. Oprah told me a long time ago, 'You sign every check. Never let anyone sign any checks.'
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 don't have a good British accent.
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.
