15 Inspiring Quotes by ROGER FEDERER:

“Once you find that peace, that place of peace and quiet, harmony and confidence, that’s when you start playing your best.”

“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.”

“I fear no one but respect everyone.”

“You have to put in a lot of sacrifice and effort for sometimes little reward but you have to know that if you put in the right effort the reward will come.”

“It is always in my mind still that I can crush anybody. That’s not an issue. But I think that is the same for most athletes. If you don’t believe you can win tournaments anymore, then you can’t do it.”

“I always believe if you’re stuck in a hole and maybe things aren’t going well you will come out stronger. Everything in life is this way.”

“There is no way around hard work. Embrace it. You have to put in the hours because there’s always something which you can improve. ”

"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.”

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

“When you win everything, it’s fun.”

“I have learnt to be even more patient.”

Sometimes you have to accept that a guy played better on the day than you.

“I fear no one, but respect everyone.”

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.

“It is always in my mind still that I can crush anybody. That’s not an issue. But I think that is the same for most athletes. If you don’t believe you can win tournaments anymore, then you can’t do it.”
