Svitolina says she doesn’t feel like she’s allowed to be sad for losing a tennis match while people are suffering in Ukraine, ‘I have this amazing opportunity to represent my country, to use my voice & just be there for my people’

“You really seem like you have such a good spirit even after a tough loss…”

Elina. “I feel like I should not be allowed to be sad. I have this amazing opportunity to play on center court here, represent my country, to do it in a decent way.. to have an opportunity to use my voice and just be there for my people. I feel like for the past weeks, they’ve been really carrying me through with great emotions. I cannot complain. People are living a horrible and terrifying life in Ukraine. I should not be allowed to really be sad. I’m a very lucky person.” ❤️

Elina Svitolina has reached the quarterfinals of the 2026 Australian Open, defeating a “neutral” russian player.

The Ukrainian beat world No. 7 Mirra Andreeva 6–2, 6–4, taking revenge for last year’s loss in Indian Wells. Svitolina pointedly refused to shake her opponent’s hand after the match.

Krzysztof Kieślowski on why he feels it is immoral to spend a lot of money to make movies:

"I don't believe in absolute freedom. In practice it is impossible, philosophically unacceptable. We direct ourselves to get freedom and every time we realize we can't reach it. And, looking at it in this way, the goal is not as important as the means of attaining it: it is not possible- thank God!- to achieve our goal. So it is obvious that I am favourably disposed to compromise. And not because it is useful.

First of all, because I don't know the answers, and in making films I ask questions. Questions and doubts, lack of self-confidence, curiosity and amazement that everything goes on in a natural way- all this puts me in the position of an observer and a listener. I change my script very often- the scenes, dialogues or situations- because I can see that people around me have better ideas, more intelligent solutions. It doesn't disturb me that these are other people's ideas. When I have accepted and chosen them, they become mine.

As a film director I am realistic. I am using the world of events and the world of thoughts, and I treat them equally. I am also realistic in my approach to the work. I respect my producer, money and, above all, my viewer. Not just because I have to. I do so because I want to. In my opinion, the production of a film- however costly- has its own morality. And I am trying to obey this morality, because I want to obey. A cup of coffee may cost 1½ dollars, may cost 3 or 5 dollars, but when it costs 120 dollars, drinking this coffee is immoral. It is exactly the same in the production of films.

The film I want to make is the film I am able to make. There are no others. I don't think of other films. I don't have a million viewers waiting at the entrance of the cinema, but I need to feel that someone needs me for something. And even if I make films- like all my colleagues- for myself, I'm looking all the time for somebody who tells me, like a fifteen-year-old girl in France, 'I saw your 'Double Life of Veronique' (1991) Then I want to see it several more times. For the first time in my life I have seen and I have felt that there is something like 'soul'. So, if I were not concerned about this girl's opinion, there would be no reason to take the camera out of its box."

The first time I saw this goal was during the school holidays in the mid‑80s.

I was 9 or 10, staying at my grandparents’ house.

Watched Escape to Victory on a black and white portable TV.

Pelé’s goal gave me goosebumps.

Still does.

Defensive effort first. Winning score second.
40 seconds left: he prevents defeat.
Two minutes later: he decides the game.
Impact is defined by work, not time on the pitch.
