I don't really rate press conferences. It's not as though I leave the room fist-pumping my way down the corridor after a good one.
Andy Roddick -
Almost everybody's here doing the same thing. Who am I to come up with an excuse when there's 64 other players here doing the same thing? 63 others, sorry.

My aggression out there is my weapon. I think it's more letting them know that I'm not going to let them get away with something, and I'm not just going to kind of poke it back and be content to stay in rallies.
Andy Roddick -
I've pretty much been portrayed as every style thing you can be. After Wimbledon you are Andy Everyman, who everybody is rooting for. I think the meat and potatoes of who I am hasn't been covered yet.
Andy Roddick -
Tennis analyst is the easiest job in the world because whatever the person does, if it works you just say that's what's good, and if it doesn't work, you guys go, 'He should have done the other things.'.It just doesn't take much thought. If I'm grinding and I'm winning, you guys are like, 'He's reinvented himself.' If I'm playing like crap and pushing, then, you know, 'He's horrible and he needs to hit the ball.'

Call me All-American, but I love Ham and Cheese sandwiches. And not just any old ham and cheese sandwich... My mother's is the best. I've tried many times to make these sandwiches on my own, but it's never the same.

In the States, tennis is sixth or seventh on the totem pole as far as sports go.

Stay in school kids or you'll end up being an umpire.

I used to go to the US Open on my birthdays and sit in the nosebleeds.
Andy Roddick -
No, actually I wanted to play five. I definitely wanted to try to lose that fourth set and test the waters in the fifth.
Andy Roddick -
Why would I get a wild card into an American tournament, (as the) top-ranked American? Why would that happen? That makes too much sense. Maybe I should play more Davis Cup, that's the story. Oh wait, I do.
Andy Roddick -
I cook a little - I've never taken classes or anything - but enough to get by.
Andy Roddick -
He [Vince Spadea] was about as down and out as you could see from a Top 20 player. Then to claw his way back through the minor leagues and do it the hard way where he wasn't young, wasn't getting wildcards, wasn't getting any help. I guess he decided he was just going to do it.
Andy Roddick -
I do understand that when someone gives you a [expletive] load of money, you take that money. Someone like Larry Ellison wants to invest into his event and make it the biggest possible, and he gets stopped by the ATP. If you're a start-up, what would make you want to navigate through that and to go through that firing line? How can you step into tennis with any confidence? It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.

I played basketball in high school, and I love watching sports - I'll watch everything except maybe hockey.

You can get the true essence of New Yorkers by just hanging out in Central Park
Andy Roddick -
One of the cool things I remember is the Swiss people brought their big cowbells.
Andy Roddick -
For every bad moment I've had, there have been 25 positives.
Andy Roddick -
There's no home team in tennis, no built-in fan base, so the players have to step up and do their fair share.
Andy Roddick -
Once you get to a certain level, anybody can beat anybody else on any given day.

I don't care when people use the term 'one-Slam wonder' with me.
Andy Roddick -
Is that the longest fifth set ever? It was? So, no, I've never played one longer than that!
Andy Roddick -
I'm gonna have to start winning some of the matches to call it a rivalry!
Andy Roddick -
Having two older brothers is a healthy reminder that you're always closer to the bottom than you are to the top.
