Famous quotes by Monica Seles:

"What Mary has achieved is nothing short of amazing. If she can come back from all her injuries and do so well, then I think why can't I?"

"If I don't play ever again professionally, I'm happy. If I get to play, it's all a bonus at this stage."

"It's fantastically exciting. She's so young still and she was so good. I'm a big fan of hers. She was a great No. 1 player. She was a chess player out there."

"I'm still training and still trying, but at the same time I'm realistic. After 2006, if not, then it's pretty sure. You have to move on."

"Right now I think I'm in the decision stage of which way I'm going to go."

"I think it's important to convey to the kids that you don't have to come from a family that's got all the things to start being a tennis player. It's very simple as long as you have the will and certain things in place."

"I don't believe in playing hurt, in taking injections to cover the pain."

"Right now, I'm very fortunate I'm making my living being a professional, and everything else that has happened in my career. But one day it's going to be all taken away, and I'm still going to play tennis because I love it."

"All my career I've really been in the Top 10 barring those lovely injuries, but each one is tough."

"It doesn't matter who is playing or how old they are. I just worry about what I can control. It doesn't give me more or less motivation."

"As a top player, you have to keep your emotions in check. You think you can control everything."

"Madonna has total control over her life, and not many women have that."

"Did you know that Christmas Day is absolutely the best day to fly? It is. No crowded airports and crowded planes. I always flew to Australia. That's what Christmas was for me - a plane journey to the next tournament."

"If you look at tennis, the girls have become much more attractive; they wear makeup. In my generation, you were a tennis player. It wasn't like you had to look a certain way."

"I lost my dad way too early and it was agonisingly awful. I missed him so much and I hated knowing that I could never again pick up the phone to tell him about my day."

"People think I must have been so talented at an early age, but I don't know - was it talent or hard work? Who knows?"

"I would like to thank all my tennis fans who were there from Day One when I was No. 1, through my stabbing, and my comeback."

"You will never have great tennis champions from England because of the cold and dark, but most of all because people only care about the sport for two weeks a year, and then they're on to something else. There's just not a great love of the sport there."

"Since I retired, I very much enjoy watching Serena Williams play. While I was playing, she was one of the toughest players I ever faced. Her ground strokes are so solid, her serve is one of the most powerful in women's tennis, and mentally she is just so strong."

"Tennis is pretty unforgiving if you are carrying weight. You are expected to wear short skirts, and you are compared to all these 16 and 17-year-olds."
