Venus Williams Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Venus Williams:

No one goes into the office for fun. You go, and even if you love it, you're there to work.

Sjogren's is something you live with your whole life. The good news for me is now I know what's happening after spending years not knowing... I feel like I can get better and move on.

Venus Williams

I don't focus on what I'm up against. I focus on my goals and I try to ignore the rest.

Venus Williams

I don't have time to be negative.

Venus Williams

Unfortunately the world is what it is now. People don't get along for whatever reason. As professional athletes, in a way we're almost ambassadors for peace, because sports brings everyone together.

Venus Williams

I wear a lot of tight dresses, so I'm like, 'I need to do my sit-ups!'

Venus Williams

Some people say that I have an attitude- Maybe I do. But I think that you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does- that makes you a winner right there.

Venus Williams

It wasn't like I was self-motivated. My dad started me. It was his dream before it was mine.

Venus Williams

I don't come to tournaments to make friends, to go to parties, to hold conversations. I come to be the best, and I'm not mean and cruel and dirty.

Venus Williams

When you lose, you're more motivated. When you win, you fail to see your mistakes and probably no one can tell you anything.

Venus Williams

I guess rumors are more exciting than the truth.

Venus Williams

I think I can change the game.

Venus Williams

My style is kind of eclectic and I don't like to do the same thing over and over again. I like to have fun and explore myself so you won't see the same design.

Venus Williams

If I didn't play tennis I don't know where I'd be.

Venus Williams

I love design.

Venus Williams

I've been very focused on my career outside of tennis.

Venus Williams

For years I felt that I didn't have enough stamina and then, four years ago, I felt like I was not getting enough air but I was diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma. The medicine for asthma never worked.

Venus Williams

Everyone makes their own comments. That's how rumors get started.

Venus Williams

I had skate wing in London. I had mine grilled with lemon and herbs, and it was the perfect seasoning for that fish.

Venus Williams

I tend to be slim and you know, I actually can lose weight quicker than I can gain it.

Venus Williams

A lot of times when you play... you get this adrenalin that blocks pain.

Venus Williams

The day I'm not improving will be the day I hang up the racket.

Venus Williams

If I don't wear something I feel confident in, I don't play as well.

Venus Williams

Some people say I have attitude - maybe I do... but I think you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does - that makes you a winner right there.

Venus Williams

If you look at me, I'm very tall but I'm not huge or muscular. I tend to be slim and you know, I actually can lose weight quicker than I can gain it.

Venus Williams

The thing about tennis is if you stay off for two weeks, or just for three days, you can lose your rhythm quickly. So it's just a question of constant diligence and vigilance.

Venus Williams

Of course I want to look well and fit - and as an athlete, I want to look strong.

Venus Williams

My motto has always been that you can't say, 'Oh, it won't happen to me.' You have to say, 'That can happen to me.' So always be aware that things can happen.

Venus Williams

Understanding that being nervous, having doubts and lacking confidence are emotions that are human is how you deal with it. It is okay to feel that way... and then understanding that you can work through it.

Venus Williams

In the sports arena I would say there is nothing like training and preparation. You have to train your mind as much as your body.

Venus Williams

Right now, I'm at the top of the world in my game so my focus isn't on when I'm going to end. My focus is on playing the best tennis that I can, and there is no end to that.

Venus Williams

Serena and I have done some great career planning, and we're playing really at the peak of our tennis right now. I think tennis has been a sport where people play this insane schedule from 14 years old, so of course at 26, it's over. We've really paced ourselves.

Venus Williams

The big push for me is the Olympics this year. If I'm healthy, I'm not worried about my ranking. I think I can hit the ball. It's just about my body cooperating. It's about being able to play matches in a row. Right now, I'm not sure how much I can do with that, but we'll see.

Venus Williams

I always show up to the office sweaty! I'll come in between workouts in a tennis skirt drenched in sweat. The only time that I actually look presentable is at meetings.

Venus Williams

Of course, I want to be number one. But being happy and healthy is the most important thing.

Venus Williams

My ambition is to enjoy my life and to do exactly what I want to do. And I'll do that. I will be free.

Venus Williams

I'd like to imagine that in order to beat me a person would have to play almost perfect tennis.
