More quotes by Venus Williams
My first job is big sister and I take that very seriously.
Venus Williams
I think everyone deals with things in their own way. Everybody's different. My family are all different. None of us are the same. We all deal with different things in different ways. I think it's about knowing yourself, what pushes your buttons, and figuring out how to work with yourself.
Venus Williams
I think nowadays it's so easy as an athlete to become a statistic whether or not you lose everything or having trouble or whatever it may be.
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
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
I know it's not the most important thing for me to win the most grand slams and be remembered in this world. I certainly don't have to win satellite tournaments here there and everywhere, I don't have to win at all. Although I do want to.
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 am someone who likes to stay positive.
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
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
I try to update as much as possible. You don't want to be in the past.
Venus Williams
If I cared deeply about what people thought of me, I probably would have never made it out of Compton, California.
Venus Williams
People ask me where I get my fighting qualities from, and I have to say Serena.
Venus Williams
I knew my destiny was to be in the winner's circle. There were times along the way where I didn't make it there. But I felt my destiny was definitely to win big titles, win lots of titles.
Venus Williams
I love to be busy, and when I'm off the court, I do things I love.
Venus Williams
I'm this overachiever type, I'll just work and work and I'll just do it over and over and over again.
Venus Williams
The naysayers, they don't mean a thing.
Venus Williams
It wasn't like I was self-motivated. My dad started me. It was his dream before it was mine.
Venus Williams
I think if you have the opportunity to bully your opponent then you have to take that chance.
Venus Williams
I don't want to give anyone an edge in my mind. Every time I walk out on the court, I have to feel I'm the best so I can compete well. A lot of times, my chief rival is just me.
