I think the whole boycott thing was a bit too much. It's because we're accomplished so much in women's tennis in the last two, three years. We deserve something better.

I'm glad you're doing this story on us and not on the WNBA. We're so much prettier than all the other women in sports.

I grew up on the tennis court with lots of other kids. There were like 40 kids all afternoon and I was one of the youngest ones, so I always had to chase everybody to keep up.

The top players talk more now, and we have more meetings. We're just trying to get things better. But we still need somebody who could make a difference.

I am a peace supporting Jew.

The final outcome of a war is often determined by the degree of initiative shown on each side.

Like a lot of people, I read 'The Diary of Anne Frank' again and again and again when I was growing up - I'm still completely felled by what an astounding book it is. And as a teenager, I did a lot of reading about concentration camps and the vast horrors of the war.

My mom was a history teacher, so I couldn't really avoid history when I was growing up. But we're very light on American history. We don't really have great opportunities to study both the Civil War and the Revolution.
