I said to the players before the start, 'Just go out and give it 100 per cent. I am not asking for any more than that'.
Messi could be the best player in the world - if he was human.
I always had wished somebody else would sing my songs, but there wasn't anybody who knew them, so I sang them myself and eventually became a better singer and guitar player.
All the stuff about being a drinking club, or having players who were not good enough, I treat as rubbish.
Known as a negative player, Karpov sets up deep traps and creates moves that seem to allow his opponent possibilities - but that really don't. He takes no chances, and he gives his opponents nothing. He's a trench-warfare fighter who keeps the game moving just an inch at a time.
It's a pretty sure thing that the player's bat is what speaks loudest when it's contract time, but there are moments when the glove has the last word.
You know what we should do? We should just put flags on everybody. Let's make it the NFFL - the National Flag Football League. It's unbelievable.
I think the game has gotten better. (The two-ref system) keeps players from taking cheap shots behind the play. I never thought I'd like it, considering the way I like to hack.
The first nine albums there was never a Synthesiser, never any Orchestra. There was never any other player except us on the albums.
Sachin Tendulkar is, in my time, the best player without doubt
I'm going to go out and try to be the best player I can be and help the Chicago Bears win.
Wrestlers are a bunch of wanna-be football players.
I know how it goes. Six or seven months ago I was the manager of the year and I was going to be this and that, tactically this and tactically that, and now, because we have lost two world-class players, I am useless. But I accept that.
I'm never going to walk away because I'll always have belief that I can improve players and make things better.
I believe a young player will run through a barbed wire fence for you. An older player looks for a hole in the fence.
We absolutely need diversity [in game designers]. And not just diversity of gender, but diversity of cultures, of ethnicity, of sexuality. If we want to reach beyond the audience we have we've got to bring in more players, and to bring in more players we've got to bring in people who might be able to reach those players.
If you're a single man and you happen to be in this business, you're deemed a player. But I don't see myself as a ladies' man.
The reason I wanted to become an organ player was because I heard Ray Charles play on Quincy Jones' arrangement of "One Mint Julep." I heard that sound, and it just struck me. I thought that's what I want to do with my life. That's the sound I want to try to make.
Pele was the most complete player I've ever seen.
I think the ability to motivate might be interpreted as the ability to lead, or to show people their goals or, perhaps more important, what their potential is - as a person as well as a player. You've got to show players that being part of a team will carry over to the experience of becoming part of society.
The Russians are the dirtiest players I’ve ever seen.
You know, I was once named Minor League Player of the Year...unfortunately, I had been in the majors for two years at the time.
As much as we disliked the Yankees, fans and players alike, they were good for baseball. They consistently unsuccessful teams like the Browns, Senators, and A's paid a lot of their bills with those big crowds that poured through the gates when the Yankees came to town.
The people who want to be recognized as the greatest traders are probably not the greatest traders. Egos get in the way of the process. In my opinion, you never want to be the largest player in the pit.
I had been inspired by an organ player named Earl Grant, who played organ and piano together. My mom took me to see him. So I went home, put my piano and organ together, too.
