ROGER FEDERER

When you're good at something, make that everything.

What I think I've been able to do well over the years is play with pain, play with problems, play in all sorts of conditions.

You have to believe in the long-term plan you have but you need the short-term goals to motivate and inspire you.

The one thing you can do for sure is push the luck on your side.

I've always been aware that the image you patiently construct for an entire career can be ruined in a minute. It scares you a bit, but that's the way things are.

I fear no one, but respect everyone.

A man who wins, is a man who thinks he can.

There is no way around the hard work. Embrace it.

Success is a nice thing because it always means you've taken a step forward and it gives you a sense of pride, which in turn gives you confidence and experience-a positive circle, so to speak.
