More quotes by Venus Williams
To stay interested in tennis, I have to mix it up with other things.
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.
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
Serena and I have done some great career planning, and we're playing really at the peak of our tennis right now. I think tennis has been a sport where people play this insane schedule from 14 years old, so of course at 26, it's over. We've really paced ourselves.
Venus Williams
I truly believe that whoever feels the most confident is usually the one to win.
Venus Williams
My dresses are designed to win, so going through it, I think about, what do I want to represent? So, definitely, Vera Wang has been an inspiration for me.

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

Venus Williams
My ambition is to enjoy my life and to do exactly what I want to do. And I'll do that. I will be free.
Venus Williams
Rain is good for me. I feel like I achieve clarity actually when it rains. The longer I have to sit and wait, the clearer my game becomes to me.
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
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
I will always be the older sister. That's never going to change.
Venus Williams
The naysayers, they don't mean a thing.
Venus Williams
If you're not a competitor, you've just got to go home.
Venus Williams
When you lose, you're more motivated. When you win, you fail to see your mistakes and probably no one can tell you anything.
Venus Williams
Well, when I walk behind short people I feel like I'm going to fall over because I start taking these little steps, and I can't take little steps.
