More quotes by Venus Williams
Definitely sport matures you, if you let it. It definitely makes you grow up because you have to work so hard that if you can't, then you probably aren't going to have the mental capacity to handle it all. That probably played a role in growing up a little faster than maybe other people.

It's thrilling and it's an honor to be part of something bigger than your own self.

The big push for me is the Olympics this year. If I'm healthy, I'm not worried about my ranking. I think I can hit the ball. It's just about my body cooperating. It's about being able to play matches in a row. Right now, I'm not sure how much I can do with that, but we'll see.

Since I started playing at the Olympics in 2000, I have always wanted to do a dress based on Wonder Woman. It should be interesting to wear. And hopefully, it will get me a gold medal.

The thing is, it's not good anyway for eight-year-olds to be out there playing tennis tournaments so soon in their lives. But when I did get to play in a tournament, when I was nine, I was overjoyed.
Venus Williams
If I go down, it's never easy. At least my opponent knows they have to go to the end of the earth to take me out no matter what the circumstances. I do try to compete. Even if it's not your best day, I just try to walk off the court knowing I gave 100,000 percent.
Venus Williams
As far as everyone else's opinion, I mean, if I would have thought that everyone was right, I probably wouldn't have left Compton, so I don't get too caught up on what the next person thinks.
Venus Williams
We've been training and playing full-time since we were 18 and 19. So after tennis, we'll be excited to see what it's like to have more free time.
Venus Williams
I don't come to tournaments to make friends, to go to parties, to hold conversations. I come to be the best, and I'm not mean and cruel and dirty.
Venus Williams
When youre on top, youre on top.
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 tend to be slim and you know, I actually can lose weight quicker than I can gain it.
Venus Williams
I have to say accounting almost killed me.
Venus Williams
I think if you have the opportunity to bully your opponent then you have to take that chance.
Venus Williams
If you're not a competitor, you've just got to go home.
Venus Williams
Tennis is a huge part of my life, but I don't base my self-value or my self-worth or the quality of my life on my results on the court.
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
I am someone who likes to stay positive.
