Patrick Rafter Quotations

This is one of the highs. I don't think there is any more, this is it for me. I'm really surprised to receive this so young. I expected it to come later on, when I was older.

I think Andre Agassi is one of the greatest role models that we have in tennis. It's important with my young family to understand charity work and to get them involved as much as I can; I hope to be a role model for them.

You've got to be realistic.

Life's there to make the most of, and that's what I do.

I'm not that good a player, and I'll be the first to admit that. I might be a three or four grand-slam winner; I might be a two grand-slam winner, I don't know.

I'm not going to be a ten or twelve grand-slam winner. It's not going to happen.

I don't know if Wimbledon's seen anything like it. I don't know if they will again. But it was just - it was electric. The Aussie crowd, I'm really proud of them, the way they conducted themselves. You know they're great losers, as well.

I'm the sort of person who keeps a lot to myself.

I'm not a creature of the night, mate.

Im sick of making bloody history.
