You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you'd experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.

When I won in 2003 never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would win Wimbledon and have my kids seeing me lift the trophy so this is pretty surreal. And yeah I was almost shocked in the moment that it all came together so nicely.

I had always loved John Ford's pictures. And I came to love him too but I was frightened to death working for him. He used the shock treatment while directing me.

No matter how prepared you think you are for the death of a loved one it still comes as a shock and it still hurts very deeply.

It's not like he called me up and asked me. They've never wanted to throw us into that world and I think our decision probably shocked them. But I love my dad and I think I'd regret it if I didn't do this.

My dad said 'The thing that I was told that was really helpful was that I mustn't be afraid of the things I was afraid of when I was five years old'. The shock of his childhood had put him in this defensive crouch against the world and he needed to know that he had a nice wife and kids and it wasn't the same any more.

Not much shocked me. You know I worked in a home for Alzheimer's patients and my dad used to be really into murders and stuff so I saw dead bodies. It desensitised me to a lot of things.

I think it can be fun to be single and date-like when you don't want a relationship. Or when you've just gotten out of a relationship and after get over the initial shock your thinking Hey it's kind of cool being single.

Man has a limited biological capacity for change. When this capacity is overwhelmed the capacity is in future shock.

Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time.
