Other quotes by Arthur Ashe

We must reach out our hand in friendship and dignity both to those who would befriend us and those who would be our enemy.

I don't care who you are, you're going to choke in certain matches. You get to a point where your legs don't move and you can't take a deep breath. You start to hit the ball about a yard wide, instead of inches.

The ideal attitude is to be physically loose and mentally tight.

I don't want to be remembered for my tennis accomplishments.
