“It's no accident, I think, that tennis uses the language of life. Advantage, service, fault, break, love, the basic elements of tennis are those of everyday existence, because every match is a life in miniature.

It reminds me of the way seconds become minutes become hours, and any hour can be our finest. Or darkest. It's our choice.”
