Rafael Nadal Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Rafael Nadal:

I'm lucky enough to do what I like for work - not everyone's that fortunate.

I only ever run when there's some point to it - say, if it's in a game of tennis.

Rafael Nadal

I am happy with being a tennis player and the choice I took when I was 12. But clearly, if I wouldn't have been a tennis player, I would have loved to be a soccer player. But again, I am happy with the choice I made.

Rafael Nadal

I'm really, really emotional.

Rafael Nadal

Every year I go to Broadway to see a musical - I like the music. I saw 'Mamma Mia;' I saw 'Les Miserables;' I saw 'Phantom of the Opera' like six, seven times.

Rafael Nadal

No one is perfect. Everybody does stupid things.

Rafael Nadal

I have the same bedroom I've always had. It's clean and tidy when I get home, and after two or three days it gets messy and my mother nags me.

Rafael Nadal

I'll never have a tattoo - I just don't like them, and when you're old they can look a disaster. As for piercings, I don't like them on men.

Rafael Nadal

I don't have any idols, any heroes, nothing, no.

Rafael Nadal

I love the crowds in Miami. I feel that is one of the tournaments where I get more support. That helps me a lot.

Rafael Nadal

I was passionate about soccer. I still am. Odd, though - playing soccer always made me much more anxious than playing tennis. On soccer days, I'd be out of bed by 6 in the morning, all nervous. But I was always calm when it was time for a tennis match. I still don't know why.

Rafael Nadal

I think I am a complete player. I can play well on all the surfaces. For me, the clay might be easiest, but I am not a specialist on clay.

Rafael Nadal

That's painful always to lose.

Rafael Nadal

The family is very important. They make me feel good always because if I won, when I started to be famous, the relationship never changed with my friends and family.

Rafael Nadal

Last four months were great for me, was probably one of the best four months of my career, playing unbelievable in the clay court season.

Rafael Nadal

I'm always searching for new music, and I change what I listen to on a regular basis.

Rafael Nadal

We'll try and be very aggressive, we'll try and speed up and change gears, and we'll see who's going to win.

Rafael Nadal

You just try to play tough and focus point for point. Sounds so boring, but it's the right thing to do out there.

Rafael Nadal

As a tennis player you can win and you can lose, and you have to be ready for both. I practised self-control as a kid. But as you get older they both - winning and losing - get easier.

Rafael Nadal

Why would I want a place of my own? Then I would have to things worry about, like doing laundry and having food in the fridge.

Rafael Nadal

My serve can get better, for sure. It's not just about serving bombs, but positioning, variation in speed, in spin.

Rafael Nadal

My motivation is tomorrow, just one day at a time, right?

Rafael Nadal

I think when you compete every week, when you play under pressure daily, you find your rituals to be 100 percent focused on what you're doing.

Rafael Nadal

I used to wear sleeveless T-shirts all the time on court, but now I've got a brand new look - I've moved on to polo shirts. Sleeveless T-shirts give you real freedom of movement and they keep you cooler in matches, but I just thought it was time for a change.

Rafael Nadal

I live where I would like to live. I live in Majorca, Spain, and I am not sure there are better places.

Rafael Nadal

You fight, you try your best, but if you lose, you don't have to break five racquets and smash up the locker room. You can do those things, but when you've finished, nothing's changed. You've still lost. If something positive came from that, I probably would do it. But I see only negativity.

Rafael Nadal

It's hard to say, 'I don't believe in God.' I would love to know if God exists. But it's a very difficult thing for me to believe.

Rafael Nadal

The thing, when you're down two sets to love, is to stay calm, even though it's hard, because people are freaking out, people are worried for you.

Rafael Nadal

I have no interest in becoming a tax exile and living somewhere I don't want to - I just want to be at home with my family.

Rafael Nadal

I have been learning English on the road since I started when I was 15, so it is a slow process but making some progress. Now I think I am much more comfortable with my English. However, it is difficult, still, when I speak about something that is not tennis.

Rafael Nadal

I admire a lot of people, but in terms of sport I've always loved the mentality of Tiger Woods on a golf course. I always love his eyes when he's setting himself and focusing on his decision; he has a really strong, focused face and believes that he can make the shot.

Rafael Nadal

Being home alone at night makes me a bit nervous. If I'm at home alone, I have to sleep on the sofa - I can't face going to bed. I'm there with the TV on and all the lights on. I'm not very brave about anything in life. In tennis, yes. In everything else, not very.

Rafael Nadal

If you don't lose, you cannot enjoy the victories. So I have to accept both things.

Rafael Nadal

My tennis is aggressive, though I wouldn't say that it's more physical than technical. I rely more on technique than physique, but being physical is always a help to me.

Rafael Nadal

I like a lot of sports. Especially football - it's my favourite sport. My uncle played football in Barcelona for nine years and played for Spain in three World Cups.

Rafael Nadal

I am not the most courageous guy in the world outside of the court.

Rafael Nadal

New York is a special place; it's a city that I love.
