More quotes by Venus Williams
I just try to stay positive and focused on the tennis, not let anything get to me, like crazy questions. But I'm tough, let me tell you, tough as nails.
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.

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.

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.

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 contribute my best in my sport and I also have a ton of respect for myself and my family.
Venus Williams
A lot of times when you play... you get this adrenalin that blocks pain.
Venus Williams
Interior design is a business of trust.
Venus Williams
I can walk around fine, but I don't have a desk job.
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
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
The thing that's most important in getting you in the best mindest is just being prepared - having a great practice, and knowing that no matter what knowing you're going to go in with confidence. You need to have that confidence to power through.
Venus Williams
If I didn't play tennis I don't know where I'd be.
Venus Williams
I say accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. If you don't accessorize, someone else will.
Venus Williams
Some people say I have attitude - maybe I do...but I think you have to.
Venus Williams
You can never get complacent because a loss is always around the corner.
