Idi Amin

My mission is to lead the country out of a bad situation of corruption, depression and slavery. After I rid the country of these vices, I will then organize and supervise a general election of a genuinely democratic civilian government.

I am the hero of Africa.

Politics is like boxing – you try to knock out your opponents.

I propose getting rid of conventional armaments and replacing them with reasonably priced hydrogen bombs that will be distributed equally throughout the world.

In any country there must be people who have to die. They are the Sacrifices any nation has to make to achieve law and order.

You cannot run faster than a bullet.

Tennis is beautiful when you can see tactics, when players don’t just react but are able to act and think.

I didn’t play a great match, but once I pass the first two rounds, things get easier. I’m used to the court and the conditions.

Confidence is the most important thing in this sport, and the confidence from winning Wimbledon would make it easier to win the Olympics, too. Either would be very difficult, both even more-but the player who wins Wimbledon will be the favorite for the Olympics. It can happen.

I only ever run when there’s some point to it – say, if it’s in a game of tennis.

I always wanted to be honest with myself and to those who have had faith in me.

It should not be a child’s only goal to become the best player in the world. That would be a bad, a harmful attitude.

Sport has the power to change the world.

Is more for precaution. You don’t know tomorrow what’s happen, no? But now I am happy because I don’t feel too much pain. But I can finish the match, so that’s a good sign.

Honesty, willingness to exert oneself, friendship – all these things shaped me too.

I love this game, I love this sport, I love this league. Why don’t I get my own team?

I am just like all the jerks and idiots you know. I am just a guy that watches sports all day.

Every year I go to Broadway to see a musical – I like the music. I saw ‘Mamma Mia;’ I saw ‘Les Miserables;’ I saw ‘Phantom of the Opera’ like six, seven times.

As a tennis player you can win and you can lose, and you have to be ready for both. I practised self-control as a kid. But as you get older they both – winning and losing – get easier.

I am a guy who likes to do what I am doing with passion, whether it’s a soccer match with friends or golf.

It’s more a tennis problem than a mental problem. The transition is difficult. It depends how much time you have. Playing on grass can sometimes be a bit of a lottery.
