Some people say I have attitude - maybe I do... but I think you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does - that makes you a winner right there.

More quotes by Venus Williams
Sometimes, you know, once you pay your taxes and once you pay your expenses, once you've lived this life, things add up quickly. And it's easy to become a statistic. And that's something I've always tried to avoid, and I've always said, hey - not that it won't be me, that, hey, it could be me.
Venus Williams
I guess some kids around me had to grow up quickly, had all those problems. But I wasn't one of those kids, or around those kids, not at all.
Venus Williams
Winning once is never anyone's dream. We all want to keep winning no matter what it is, or if we retire, we all still are striving toward something, probably most of us are.
Venus Williams
Whoever is across the net, I want to win. Whoever that person is, that's the day I want to win.
Venus Williams
I think if you have the opportunity to bully your opponent then you have to take that chance.
Venus Williams
I'm only seeing tennis balls these days. And maybe the occasional fashion sketch.
Venus Williams
I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.
Venus Williams
For years I felt that I didn't have enough stamina and then, four years ago, I felt like I was not getting enough air but I was diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma. The medicine for asthma never worked.
Venus Williams
The thing about tennis is if you stay off for two weeks, or just for three days, you can lose your rhythm quickly. So it's just a question of constant diligence and vigilance.
Venus Williams
Workout. Lead a balanced life and try to have fun. It's what you make it.
Venus Williams
Unfortunately the world is what it is now. People don't get along for whatever reason. As professional athletes, in a way we're almost ambassadors for peace, because sports brings everyone together.
Venus Williams
The most fun part about working out is being done - getting through the workout, let's be honest. But that feeling afterward? Yeah, that's worth it.
Venus Williams
In the sports arena I would say there is nothing like training and preparation. You have to train your mind as much as your body.
Venus Williams
Sometimes, when there's a video montage. I'm thinking, 'That's my life. Oh, my God, I did that.' Yeah, it's amazing.
Venus Williams
My goal is always the same: to keep the other player from ever scoring a point. That doesn't always happen, but that's what I try for.
Venus Williams
I guess rumors are more exciting than the truth.
Venus Williams
Just always believe in yourself. Champions adjust. It's a line I learned from Billie Jean King, and sometimes your dream adjusts. Be willing to adjust with it and see where your opportunities ... sometimes a door closes but a window opens, so just follow your dreams and continue. You never know where it's going to take you.
Venus Williams
I know I'm good at tennis. Other than that, everything else is a wild card. I'm a wild card.
Venus Williams
You learn so much from your parents. We grew up in a home where we were definitely taught to be confident. I definitely give me parents a lot of credit.
Venus Williams
A lot of people say, Oh, I get this high from working out. I've never felt that, maybe because I've worked out for so long it's just a norm for me to push super, super hard. I don't feel the euphoria. But at the end, when it's all done, I feel euphoric. I'm like, Yes, the work is done. You just feel like a glowing feeling inside.
