I went to see ‘Shine a Light,’ and it was the most perfect thing I could have done to watch that man do what he does in front of an audience.

In Sweden everybody is so calm and relaxed. I love it.
A lot of times when I’m confident and relaxed on the court, I’m going to be a pretty tough out. But when I’m not so confident and not so relaxed, I tense up and my balls fall short and everything. It just sort of unravels.

Chicago has a burly, action-oriented but still self-assured and relaxed confidence to its stride. The city has a lot of wide-open space and all the possibilities that suggests. There’s a lot of horizontal grandeur here.

I want to run with a relaxed mind.

The more relaxed you can get, the better you’ll do.
A relationship book I once read told women to use the word ‘fun’ whenever possible. The author claimed it had a subliminal aphrodisiac effect on men, who want a relaxed girl attached only to good times – the human equivalent of Diet Coke. This is not me.
When my ban was relaxed I began playing club cricket. Imagine, for a person who had played at Lord’s, to play with a club team who didn’t have proper kit against another club team in Lahore.

New York had a big influence on me growing up, and I was really part of the club scene – the Mudd Club and Studio 54. When you’re living in New York, you are just bombarded with style, trying to figure out how to be cool and how to feel relaxed at the same time.
