It's very pretty here. The stadium is very intimate and the court plays great. The hospitality is great and we are enjoying ourselves, everyone's been real nice.

A positive attitude can really make dreams come true -- it did for me.

Lindsay and Serena are my singles players, ... Venus agreed to come, but knows she might not be playing. She's a team player.

Martina Navratilova is an incredible person who has done so much for our sport. Venus and Serena are incredible. And Lisa is a good team player who plays singles and doubles well.

J.J. plays with that edge. When you see J.J. on the court, you can see it in his eyes. It's the eyes of a killer. He's really focused. His emotion seldom changes. If you watch him, whether he's making every shot or missing every shot, you can see that his facial expression never changes. He remains focused.

Receive under your roof those who seek protection and know the exact time to send them away before they become puffed up and ready to bite the hand that fed them.
