Famous Quotes and Comments by Pete Sampras

There is no question in my mind. I am going to be back. This is not the way I want to go out. I going to stop on my own terms, not when someone else thinks I should stop. What I have done here and what I have done in the game is always going to stick, no matter what.
Pete Sampras

I found tennis for myself. My parents just supported my interest in the game. It was a financial strain. For a while, my dad worked two jobs. At first, he tried coaching me by reading books about the game. But that didn't last too long, and we joke about it now.

When I won the [US] Open in '90, I wasn't ready. Not as a person, and not as a tennis player, I just happened to have two great weeks. That's the only way to explain it. Otherwise, I was a really green, insecure kid.

Anytime you look back and you win Wimbledon, which in my mind is the biggest one we have, you can't complain about that year. But as hard as I am on myself, how much emphasis I put on these majors, felt like I had a pretty good opportunity to win here, it's disappointing, you know.
