Quotes

"You feel kind of a little bit more responsibility," she told reporters. "You feel more that you have to be, a role model or something. But, I try to be always honest, with anybody and with myself, especially. No I don't think I should change at all because that's what got me to No. 1. That's what I'm going to try to stick by ... You have to be nice. That's a part of being a human being  For me, there are two words: being respectful and being honest. That's my main things that I look into people."
"Last year probably answer is different, because if I won I will equal [Bjorn Borg," Nadal told reporters. "Any year we can find a different excuse to be different. But at the end, what is different is another year, another Roland Garros. This tournament is enough important for himself, not because now I have six. I have much more than I ever dreamed. I am coming here with motivation of every year with the illusion to play well. But I don't going to be more motivated because I have six and I can win seven. And I was not more motivated when I arrived here in 2005 than today. I was not more motivated in 2010 when I lose in 2009. The motivation always is the same. Sometimes you lose; sometimes you win. That's the sport and that's the game."
"I'm very happy with how the company has treated me. I signed with them when I was 15; now I'm No. 9 [in the world], I have a better ranking—they're treating me completely the same."
"I lost a lot of time (after the title)," Li told reporters. "I had to do so many things out of tennis. So after Roland Garros I felt I had lost concentration on the court. I was training as hard as before ... but it was totally different because my mind was not on the court anymore. I always had to do so many things and it's something I had never experienced before. I wasted half a year to learn life. Last year I was back in China, I was in a restaurant, and suddenly a lady screamed: 'Oh, she's eating.' I was like ... I have to go to the supermarket to buy something, like everyone else but they think I'm different."
