You can create sense out of nonsense, something out of nothing. You can create wealth out of dearth, viable ventures out of turbulent adventures. You can create mercies out of miseries. You can create tomorrow’s peace out of today’s crisis. ↗

If you want to use a cliche you must take full responsibility for it yourself and not try to fob it off on anon., or on society. ↗

People think that there is so much money in tennis, but the reality is unless you're ranked in about the top 50 you don't earn much at all. It is hard to support yourself travelling the world, to be away from home most of the year and to pay for a coach to help you become a better player. ↗

You put yourself on the line as a performer, and when people reject you, it's a personal rejection. ↗
