There is nothing like playing at Wimbledon you can feel the footprints of the legends of the game-men and women-that have graced those courts.
Venus Williams
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.
Venus Williams
Every Olympics is something special. If you're fortunate enough to play for your country - there's just so much energy. It's truly amazing.

I think business is the same as tennis. You have to have the love, that helps, or else it's just too much pressure to be able to keep up with.
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
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
Tennis is mostly mental. Of course, you must have a lot of physical skill, but you can't play tennis well and not be a good thinker. You win or lose the match before you even go out there.
Venus Williams
If you're not a competitor, you've just got to go home.
Venus Williams
We don't talk about tennis. I figure she knows what she's doing. I mean, what am I going to tell her?
Venus Williams
It's amazing when tragedy strikes, how strong you find that you are, and I'd seen other people go through horrible things. And I just thought, Wow, I would be a complete mess, and then suddenly when it happens, you realize you had more strength than you knew and it helps you to get through.
