And you want children, I asked? Children are great, he said. If children come with the package, I'm fine with that, but I wouldn't want too many because they cost a lot. I'm happy working to support someone I love, but having more and more children just for the sake of having a bigger family is not something I'd contemplate. We only need children to replace the population which is dying. As a christian, I believe children should be born into a marriage, and I'd prefer to have a daughter, but you have to take what you get.
I see, I said. What happened to her? I'm still severely restricted about what I cn and cannot do, he said. For example, I asked teh trust to let me go to the Olympic games in Athens, but they refused.
I'm going to see what they do when I run out of money. If there is nothing to manage, they may decide it isn't worth their time, he said. The Serbian is still there, I sent her an airline ticket, but she decided not to come.
Maria Sharapova- "Reading the newspapers, there's nothing I'm going to learn new about
myself, because I know what I said, and you know, I don't need to read
what I said, 'cause I know what I said. I like to look at the pictures."
At 17. Another argument for a college education.
reality question? What is it, I asked? What is reality, he said? No I answered, what is your question? Do you remember the Wimbledon final where that bitch Rena said "Actually, I don't believe I played a Wimbledon final". Do you remember playing her and beating her in the final, or did you win by beating Lindsay Davinport in the final? I thiink I beat Davenport in the semifinals, and played Serena in the finals, I said. And there are photos of her at the awards to prove it, He asked? Yes I believe there are some, I said. In that case, he said, do you believe it is possible she had somebody else stand in for the match. With Serena, anything is possible, she said. Do you think that should be in the rules then, to allow somebody else to play the game for you, the way Mathew Ridge said that in rugby league it is ok as long as they play the whole game, or the whole half. Do you think the general public will understand this and accept it? I'm not sure that I understand it, I said. You don't know what I'm talking about, he asked, or you are just playing dumb? Would you like me to clarify the point so a distinction can be drawn about what is allowed on the professional playing surface and what is allowable in the bedroom? Why don't you, I said. more
Maybe you couldn't afford it I suggested? At the time I still had $80,000 invested in shares, and since then my property has increased by another $200,000, he said, so I don't think thats it.
Svetlana Kuznetsova- "Sharapova of course, but I don't know if you would call her Russian though."
When asked who is the most popular of the Top 10 Russians.
She has a cell phone I sent her, and my email address, so she can contact me at anytime if she wants to. But you are not in love, I asked? I have never met her, he said, so first things first. Love is different for a man and a woman. How so, I asked? Because a woman believes that all the world's problems will magically disappear if she falls in love, but a man knows that he has responsibilities, that the world won't just end and he must just expand his world to include her expectations. There is a reality gap. Do you mind if I ask you a
Maria Sharapova- "In reality there was a match. She must not have been in reality."
Responding to Serena Williams saying "Actually, I don't believe I played
a Wimbledon final" concerning their last meeting, which the Russian
won.
Maria Sharapova "I believe, at the end of the day, personally, my life is not about a banana."
