Billie Jean King

Create your legacy, and pass the baton.

Billie Jean King

Each point I play is in the now moment. The last point means nothing, the next point means nothing.

Billie Jean King

I think self-awareness is probably the most important thing towards being a champion.

Billie Jean King

It takes time to build trust and respect. It’s something you earn, not something that is given.

Billie Jean King

The main thing is not a matter of wanting to win; the main thing is being scared to lose.

Billie Jean King

The most important words that have helped me in life, when things have gone right or when things have gone wrong are ‘accept responsibility.’

Billie Jean King

When people tell you not to believe in your dreams, and they say ‘Why?’, say ‘Why not?’

Billie Jean King

You have got to want to be the best before you can even begin to reach for that goal, and you have got to be prepared to sacrifice a lot to get there.

Billie Jean King

You never get it when you want it, and then when it comes, you get too much.

Billie Jean King

A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning.
