I hope we get a decision shortly - I will be dead soon. (on wanting to be Man City manager)

I think management is about just that - managing people via man-to-man skills.

I can see the carrot at the end of the tunnel.

I do appreciate that the most important thing as manager is to get good results.

The way I was brought up by my parents and guided through my football life by the influences of various managers means that in some ways I am black and white.

I will do whatever it takes to win a football match.

But to me the bottom line is the more education you can give yourself, and the more preparation you can do, the less chance of failing.

I have seen the film The Alamo and right now I feel like I've got Davy Crockett behind me. Sometimes I feel like I could put my head in a bucket of water

I enjoy making the decisions.

Football's in my blood - and eventually I want to be the one making decisions.

Join the club. (to Robbie Fowler after the striker missed a penalty against Middlesbrough that cost Man City a European place)

Our thoughts make everything possible in this impossible world.

Love is the door to Heaven

You cannot have it both ways.

There's only about 6 inches that turns that halo into a noose.

I am shocking, impertinent and insolent that's how it is.

It's the process, not the result.

The upper class desire to remain so, the middle class wish to overthrow the upper class, and the lower class want a classless system.

That's what happens when you keep a secret from someone you love: you start to hate them for allowing you to prove your own willingness to deceive them.

I know a man who, when he saw a woman of striking beauty, praised the Creator for her. The sight of her lit within him the love of God.
