Football boots are very technical and have lots of specific requirements.

I once cried because I had no shoes to play soccer, but one day, I met a man who had no feet.

If you are determined and confident, there is nothing in this great existence that can stop you from achieving what you want.

I am first of all from La Castellane and Marseille.

Ronaldinho is a special player, but Thierry Henry is probably technically the most gifted footballer ever to play the beautiful game.

Nobody knows if Zidane is an angel or demon. He smiles like Saint Teresa and grimaces like a serial killer.

Everything I have achieved in football is due to playing football in the streets with my friends

Real Madrid is the most important thing that happened to me, both as a footballer and as a person.

I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game.

You rarely come across the complete footballer, but Scholes is as close to it as you can get. One of my regrets is that the opportunity to play alongside him never presented itself during my career.

Zidane was from another planet. When Zidane stepped onto the pitch, the 10 other guys just got suddenly better. It is that simple.

The land of unlimited opportunity was for me, for a long time, impossible to reach. The wall, barbed wire and the order to shoot at those who tried to leave limited my access to the free world.

Disobedience to authority is one of the most natural and healthy acts.

Nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful people with talent, leave the house before you find something worth staying in for.

The love of God invades me, the peace of God pervades me, the will of God persuades me, and I am wholly His.

Now, let us all take a deep breath and forge on into the future; knitting at the ready.

Hope is wishing for something to come true. Faith is belief that it will come true. Believe that for every problem God gives you, He will also provide you with a solution.

I pride myself in being able to straddle demographics and if that was said as Barney Stinson it would mean a little different thing.

We are cosmic traitors. We must recognize this problem within ourselves if we are to grasp the necessity of the cross.

When someone mentions the gracefulness of the night sky, climb up on the roof and dance and say, like this?

I will strive to make this not the highest-spending country in the world, but instead the lowest taxing o-ne.
