What Carew does with a football, I can do with an orange.
I'm a rock star because I couldn't be a soccer star.
The world is my lobster.
I am proud of where I come from and I will never forget the people I grew up with.
As long as we have the possibility then we still have to fight for it.
I don't know if we are the best team in the world. I am lucky to be playing alongside some of the best players around. It's a dream.
I've got absolutely no intention of ever going to play at another club.
I used to go missing a lot... Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World.
An artist in my eyes, is someone who can lighten up a dark room. I have never and will never find difference between the pass from Pele to Carlos Alberto in the final of the World Cup in 1970 and the poetry of the young Rimbaud, who stretches cords from steeple to steeple and garlands from window to window. There is in each of these human manifestations an expression of beauty which touches us and gives us a feeling of eternity.
I don't have time for hobbies. At the end of the day, I treat my job as a hobby. It's something I love doing.
If a chairman sacks the manager he initially appointed, he should go as well.
I also tell them that your education can take you way farther than a football, baseball, track, or basketball will - that's just the bottom line.
I'm very inspired by him-it was my father who taught us that an immigrant must work twice as hard as anybody else, that he must never give up.
I don't believe skill was, or ever will be, the result of coaches. It is a result of a love affair between the child and the ball.
If God had wanted man to play soccer, he wouldn't have given us arms.
Pain is temporary, glory...lasts forever!
To be the ultimate team, you must use your body and your mind. Draw up on the resources of your teammates. Choose your steps wisely and you will win. Remember, only teams succeed.
The ball is like a woman, she loves to be caressed.
Football's a difficult business and aren't they prima donnas. But it's a wonderful game.
Look, there’s no rule in soccer against biting your opponent. There’s not even a rule against eating your opponent. The only rule in soccer is that you can’t use your hands.
Statistics are like miniskirts: They give you good ideas but hide the important things.
I am not a perfectionist, but I like to feel that things are done well. More important than that, I feel an endless need to learn, to improve, to evolve, not only to please the coach and the fans, but also to feel satisfied with myself. It is my conviction that here are no limits to learning, and that it can never stop, no matter what our age.
I'm a competitor. No matter what I'm doing, whether I'm golfing, whether I'm playing indoor soccer with my fiancé - he's not going to get by me. I'm going to try to do whatever I can to win.
[F]or the most part football these days is the opium of the people, not to speak of their crack cocaine. Its icon is the impeccably Tory, slavishly conformist Beckham. The Reds are no longer the Bolsheviks. Nobody serious about political change can shirk the fact that the game has to be abolished. And any political outfit that tried it on would have about as much chance of power as the chief executive of BP has in taking over from Oprah Winfrey.
I play with passion and fire. I have to accept that sometimes this fire does harm.
