Maria Sharapova quotes
-A great tennis career is something that a 15-year-old normally doesn't have. I hope my example helps other teens believe they can accomplish things they never thought possible.
-I don't follow other players or the tournaments they play. I have my own schedule and do my own thing. I never really think, 'Oh, I want to be or play like so-and-so.' I just like being myself.
-I'm just like every other girl who likes to shop, likes to look good, likes to spend time with friends.
