Flashback: French Open 2009 

• Ana Ivanovic: I was so happy for him... I was taking a flight on Sunday and I just arrived at the departure lounge during the final game. I saw the last few points and then the trophy presentation. It was a very touching moment. I was crying a little bit even. I was so pleased for him.
• Marcos Baghdatis: I'm very happy for him, because he deserves it. Like he said on the interview, a lot of people were telling him how he will never win Roland Garros. He just closed their mouths, because he's one of the greatest players in the world and we have to respect. What he did for the game is unbelievable. So, you know, I'm really happy for him, and now nobody can say anything. He's the best player in the world in history.
• Tim Henman: It's the greatest achievement in tennis. There was always a 'but' with Sampras because he never won the French Open, and now that Federer's achieved that, I think that he goes down as the best player I played against - and the best player I've ever seen.
• Rod Laver: I got up early to watch the match. I had nothing buy joy for Roger. He's a great individual. But most of all, he's an enjoyable player to watch.
• Andy Roddick: Props to Fed... that's an unreal accomplishment and puts an end to the GOAT question in my humble opinion.
• Tommy Haas: After the match [when he lead by two sets in R4], I obviously felt a little - not really regrets, I didn't play a bad point there on break point. And you thought about, 'wow, I'm so close to beating him,' ... but when I watched him celebrate yesterday and I saw all the historic moments and him now probably the greatest ever, I don't really have any regrets.
• Tomas Berdych: I was sitting almost every match and watching him on the way to the end to win the title. I was on his side. I think he really deserves to win the Grand Slam in Paris. I think now he's already like a legend, winning everything.
• IOC President Jacques Rogge: I believe that arguably he is the best ever player in the world of all times... I sent him a letter this morning expressing the hope he would participate in Wimbledon at the Olympic tournament in 2012 in London.
• Rafael Nadal: Federer is the one who deserves it the most.
• Roy Emerson: I believe he is the greatest. Now that he's won a major on all surfaces, you can't really argue with it.
• Robin Soderling: He's a great player. He doesn't have any weaknesses at all. He really deserves to be called the best player of all time.
• Pete Sampras: It feels like I'm in good company with Roger. If there was someone I would want to be tied with and maybe one day my record to be broken, I hoped it would be someone like Roger.. What he's done over the past 5 years has never, ever been done - and probably will never, ever happen again. Regardless of if he won there or not, he goes down as the greatest ever. This just confirms it.
• Me: TEARS EVERYWHERE

I just wanted to let you know that I don’t need the message because I know everything you want to say.

ASOIAF challenge Day 26: lines you wish hadn’t been cut from the show

When she got to the part where she threw Joffrey’s sword into the middle of the Trident, Renly Baratheon began to laugh. The king bristled.
“Ser Barristan, escort my brother from the hall before he chokes.”
Lord Renly stifled his laughter.
“My brother is too kind. I can find the door myself.” He bowed to Joffrey. “Perchance later you’ll tell me how a nine-year-old girl the size of a wet rat managed to disarm you with a broom handle and throw your sword in the river.”
As the door swung shut behind him, Ned heard him say, “Lion’s Tooth,” and guffaw once more.
