Novak Djokovic Quotations | Page 2

My mother is a special story. She went through so much to bring us up, four men at home, especially when our country was going through really difficult times.

You have to consistently be successful to be one of the top players in the world, and everything is possible in life.

I lost to a better player who played some courageous tennis and deserved to win.

I cannot guarantee anything.

Nadal's the best player in history on [clay], and he is one of the best-ever players that played this game.

I'm trying not to pay too much attention to the rankings because calculations can distract you.

I always try to adjust to the situation.

I always try to have something that keeps my mind relaxed, keeps my mind a little bit off tennis.

It's interesting that I had such a close relationship with my grandfather. Because your parents always judge you: they say, 'You shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do that.' But with your grandparents you have a feeling that you can say anything or you can do anything, and they will support you. That's why you have this kind of connection.

Even though now I'm pretty popular in my country and tennis is the No. 1 sport, and I'm very flattered that the people recognise me and come up and give me compliments, I'm more a person who likes to have privacy and peace.
