I'd have loved to have been a footballer. I was always playing football and I enjoyed it much more than tennis to begin with. It's more fun to play in a team, all the parents are there cheering you on.
Andy Murray

All teenage girls like to look good and tennis players are no different.
Maria Kirilenko
Image
There's power to: and everyone should have that, but everyone doesn't. Power to play Bach, or tennis, or boccie if you like. And there's power over and no one should have that, but people do.
Marilyn French

People know me. I'm not going to produce any cartwheels out there. I'm not going to belong on Comedy Central. I'll always be a tennis player, not a celebrity.
Pete Sampras
Image
There's a lot of ingredients go into being a good tennis player.
Rod Laver
Image
You know, a lot of things changed. What never changed is the illusion to keep playing tennis, the illusion to keep doing well the things, and the illusion to be in a good position of the ranking and play these kind of matches.
Rafael Nadal
Image
The only way to quieten me is to invite me to a tennis match.
John Forsythe
Image
Sure, I've been on the Tube...I caught it to Eastbourne once.
Serena Williams
Image
You don't think people would go on about my looks if I was No. 500 in the world instead of No.12, do you? Anyway, as I keep telling everyone, you can't blame me for looking like this on purpose
Anna Kournikova

I've been kicked in the teeth more times in tennis than the law ought to allow.
Jimmy Connors

John McEnroe looks as if he is serving round the edge of an imaginary building.
Clive James
Image
Maybe I could survive in one of those resort prisons where they house white-collar criminals. I've always wanted to get better at tennis.
Chuck Klosterman
Image
I have never been a fan of science fiction. For me, fiction has to explore the combinatorial possibilities of people interacting under the constraints imposed by our biology and history. When an author is free to suspend the constraints, it's tennis without a net.
Steven Pinker
Image
I get my drive and determination from just winning and playing tennis. I know if I don't work, I won't get rewarded. It was a life long dream to win a Grand Slam so when I was able to do that it felt so good and I wanted to do it again. It's not that hard to stay motivated.
Samantha Stosur

I'm playing great tennis. I'm enjoying the tour, having fun with the fans off the court. I'm loving it now.
Roger Federer

In a perfect world, my tennis game gets better. I have kids and a beautiful wife and live on some hill somewhere that's not in Los Angeles. And the script that Tom Hanks just barely turned down gets in my hands.
Matthew Perry
Image
What a polite game tennis is. The chief word in it seems to be sorry and admiration of each other's play crosses the net as frequently as the ball.
James M. Barrie
Image
'Oh and Oh' is a tennis term... It's a nice way of saying you took your opponent to pieces.
Venus Williams
Image
I'd also made the first tennis team. I was number two player in the school at 11 years of age and that didn't sit very well with people.
John Newcombe
Image
Power thrills, consistency kills.
Bill Anderson
Image
Tennis lets you talk while you're playing.
Jane Kaczmarek
Image
Let no one say that I have said nothing new... the arrangement of the subject is new. When we play tennis, we both play with the same ball, but one of us places it better.
Blaise Pascal
Image
When I walk through that gate to the court, that's my escape. I block out everything, good and bad.
Maria Sharapova
Image
Tennis players we're always playing in center courts that feel like arenas. And when we get on the court and the crowd cheers your name or salutes you - it's like you're a gladiator in the arena. And everyone is cheering - and you're fighting, you're screaming, during your strokes - it feels like you're an animal, fighting for your life.
