Stupid questions - a compilation

Q:
What was the last question you didn't expect and what was the question and what did you answer and when? Do you remember?

Don't know. Maybe one of yours. I don't know.

Are you missing Nadal at this tournament?

Roger Federer:
We're not dating, so no.

Talking about legends, in 2003 you managed to beat Pete Sampras at Wimbledon. He was an icon at that time.

2001.

Roger Federer:
I can't sleep at night, it's so amazing, the feeling...

Q:
Before you make the challenge there's a picture of two players on the court. Yours was red and black and blurry. It's just not very flattering. Perhaps you could change the quality of the picture?

Roger Federer:
[No response]
-
Q:
Is there any chance of getting one of your towels?

Roger Federer:
No. We don't have that many. They're for my friends. I don't know you. But good try.

Q:
You're still No. 1. That's good.
-
Roger Federer:
Thank you. I'm happy you say so.

Q:
Do you still think you can win Roland Garros?

Roger Federer:
Yes.

Q:
Are you sure?

Roger Federer:
Well, if you want me to answer no if that makes you happy, then no. Choose the answer. I said yes.

Q:
Imagine it's 2009 and this little fairy comes to you and says, You're going to win one tournament, but you have to choose - Wimbledon or Roland Garros. Which one?
-
Roger Federer:
I don't want to answer these stupid questions any more. They're too stupid.
-
Q:
But why?
-
Roger Federer:
Because I want to win at everything. I have no preference.
-
Q:
So you waited 27 years to win in Paris. You won the US Open, Wimbledon and the Australian Open much earlier. Does it give a special flavor to this trophy?
-
Roger Federer:
First, I never waited 27 years, because 27 years ago I was just born. My parents never told me, If you don't win Roland Garros we take you to the orphanage.
