Quotes

Here's an excerpt I liked from Open by Andre Agassi of him talking to Steffi Graf:

Stop thinking, she says. Feeling is the thing. ... We talk for days about thinking versus feeling. She says it’s one thing not to think, but you can’t then decide to feel. You can’t try to feel. You have to let yourself feel.
