It was just one of those days for him to forget and me to remember. (Roger Federer)
No, the other one was a night session too and I was wearing a white! No I'm not superstitious at all as you can see and... I try not to be... and because I try no to be, I guess I am... So it's really strange! View quote
Roger Federer
I think you need inspiration, motivation from different angles to keep you going, because it isn't that simple just to wake up every morning and go for another travel around the world, another practice, all these other things; another fitness workout, another stretch. It's always nice, but you need to have some success and you need to have the right reasons why you're doing it. I think I've always been able to do that and I really enjoy myself out on the court.

Roger Federer
I never can beat Roger, he's too much for me... but the Senior Tour, I will beat him then! He's the best of history and I'm very lucky to play the best player of the world. View quote

The best way to beat him would be to hit him over the head with a racquet. Roger could win the Grand Slam if he keeps playing the way he is and, if he does that, it will equate to the two Grand Slams that I won because standards are much higher these days. View quote

Oh, I would be honoured to even be compared to Roger. He has such an unbelievable talent, and is capable of anything. Roger could be the greatest tennis player of all time. View quote

When you do something best in life, you don't really want to give that up - and for me it's tennis. (Roger Federer)
People sometimes miss it and sometimes they don't have it and they want it, and when they have it, they don't want it. View quote

Roger Federer
I enjoyed the position I was in as a tennis player. I was to blame when I lost. I was to blame when I won. And I really like that, because I played soccer a lot too, and I couldn't stand it when I had to blame it on the goalkeeper. View quote

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. View quote

I have learnt to be even more patient. View quote
Roger Federer
I'm as patient a father as I am on the tennis court. It takes a lot for me to get really upset, but sometimes kids can get you really cross if they really keep bugging you. View quote

When I think of the Olympics I only think of good things. I think of what a great event it is and what it has done for me and my career, and changed my personal life, too. View quote
Roger Federer
The serve, I was too young and too small and... not enough powerful to have a good serve when I was young, so my forehand was always my signature shot. So I used to always run around my backhand, you know, use my forehand as much as I could, and so that's why I think it's my strength also today, you know. View quote

I am a sucker for those old traditional places, and Rome is as good as it gets, particularly when you throw in Italian food. View quote
Roger Federer

Roger Federer
You know, I don't only play for the record books. View quote
Roger Federer
I used to get nervous, you know if my parents would come watch. And then I would get nervous if my friends came and watched. Today it's not a problem anymore actually, because now I enjoy it. I see that they, you know, respect me immensely, and I try to put on a good show and show that I can still play very good tennis. View quote
