Not Every Child Is Cut Out For

There Were Times When Deep Down Inside I Wanted To Win So Badly I Could Actually Will It To Happen. I Think Most Of My Career Has Been Based On Desire.

Being Famous Before You've Formed Your Personality, Before You Have That Self-esteem, Is Dangerous.

To Be A Tennis Champion, You Have To Be Inflexible. You Have To Be Stubborn. You Have To Be Arrogant. You Have To Be Selfish And Self-absorbed. Kind Of Tunnel Vision Almost.

Now That I'm Losing Some, I Can See How Tough I Was -- The Killer Instinct, The Single-mindedness, Playing Like A Machine. Boy, That's What Made Me A Champion.

If You Can React The Same Way To Winning And Losing, That's A Big Accomplishment. That Quality Is Important Because It Stays With You The Rest Of Your Life, And There's Going To Be A Life After Tennis That's A Lot Longer Than Your Tennis Life.
