Famous quotes by Mary Pierce:

"Its super to play with Martina, and she has huge amounts of talent. We have a lot of fun."
"I'm a different person off the court than I am on the court, where I'm very competitive, a perfectionist, and I can be hard on myself sometimes. Off the court, nothing really bothers me. I'm easy-going."
"Staying in shape is important to me because when I feel fit and light on my feet, I feel I can get to all the balls and hit my shots the way I want."
"I was really happy, especially with my first set, ... I took Anna-Lena extremely seriously because I had never played her in singles before. I came out from the beginning, the first point of the match, ready to play. It was nice to see how well I was playing."
"I was fairly happy. I played well. I knew I needed to be aggressive today. I played good enough to win."
"I was happy with the way I started out the match, ... I was really playing well. I knew what I needed to do against her. She's a dangerous player if you let her play. The key for me today was hitting the ball hard, being aggressive, hitting it deep."
"As long as I was hitting the ball hard and hitting it deep, our rallies were not that long. ... There was one way to beat her, and that was to be aggressive first."
"Patty is a great player, she always puts up a great fight against me."
"I felt like I played well and did what I needed to win,"
"She seemed hampered with her movement, ... She's always pretty quick. She seemed a little bit slower today."
"My life off the court has changed. I'm feeling good inside, so I guess it shows on the outside too."
