Women belong in the bedroom and the kitchen, in that order.

Billie Jean King is one of the all-time tennis greats; she's one of the superstars. She's ready for the big one, but she doesn't stand a chance against me. Women's tennis is so far beneath men's tennis; that's what makes the contest with a 55-year-old man the greatest contest of all time.

No woman ever lived who could compete with a man on an equal basis - even a 55-year-old man. There's a lot of talk about Women's Lib. They feel they're worth as much as the guys, but they can't play a lick if they can't beat a 55-year-old guy.

No. 1, women should be in the bedroom. No. 2, get to the kitchen. No. 3, support the man, support the king.

Women play about twenty-five percent as good as men, so they should get about twenty-five percent of the money men get.

Women should do kitchen work and take care of babies.

I like women. I like them so much, I think every man should own two.

That's the trouble with the women's game. Those women think they're men, and they go off hitting all over the place. They'd be better off if they'd played like women.

If I am to be a chauvinist pig, I want to be the number one pig.

To be a winner, you've got to be an appraiser. You've got to be able to play at your best under pressure. And more money creates more pressure. Money is the finest fuel in the world.

The best way to handle women is to keep them pregnant and barefoot.

I don't want to be the guy who sits on a front porch with a mint julep in his hand and rocks his life away.

The best poker game is seven-card stud, high-low splits. I mean, it's the best if you don't have to declare high or low, and can win it all with a low straight.

The proudest thing I have ever done was to win the singles, doubles, and mixed doubles at Wimbledon.

Ali reversed the decision in a second fight with Joe Frazier. That's what would happen if I played Billie Jean again.

My philosophy is to make an offer that the other guy can't refuse, because he thinks there's no way he can't win.

If I can't play for big money, I play for a little money. And if I can't play for a little money, I stay in bed that day.

Billie and I did wonders for women's tennis. They owe me a piece of their checks.
