Football is my life. I guess I can't live without it.

If I walked on water, my accusers would say it is because I can't swim.

Football is a game that fascinates people around the World like nothing else.

Without a healthy team spirit you won't get anywhere in football.

If you have team spirit you can even beat better teams. As far as team sport is concerned China might need a change in attitude in comparison to the one in table tennis.

You need players that stand for emotion in football. Football today is a game for television.

Success is not winning the World Cup. It may be a goal in your mind but success is having a team that is improving all the time.

China needs a table-tennis-like solidity in football.

First of all, it would be great for world football to have a competitive Chinese team as China traditionally has deep relation to sports in general.

Being successful means good results for the national team at first in the regional competitions like the Asian Cup and keeping in mind to go for Gold at a World Cup in the future.

China has great potentials; the people are hard-working and focused. But they have to close the gap as far as the pace of the game is concerned. Football in the future will get faster and faster.

Everywhere we shine death and life burn into something new…

Once you get on the path leading to your success, the devil will try to stop you

Success isn't permanent and failure isn't fatal.

Pleasure resorts are like film stars and royalty... embarrassed by the figures they cut in the fantasies of people who have never met them.

I love working with women - I love women - and we need more women directors. We need more feminine sensibilities in movies.

What a blessing it would be if we could open and shut our ears...as easily as we open and shut our eyes.

The women in my family are just strong women who do their own thing, so I knew I needed to have individuals like that.

People are out there looking for jobs and realizing that they have to look within to do and create what the new and next thing will be. They can't rely anymore on what was usually given to them.

Coming into the music industry, even when I was a kid, one thing I learned is timing is everything. You being prepared is everything.

I try never to say no when it comes to creativity, but I do try and lead down an "appropriate road" - like not on furniture or the walls.
