I liked the Paul Ince and Roy Keane partnership Manchester United had. They would have been my team had I moved to England.

I’d love to be faster. Physically I’m limited, but I’ve survived by using my head.

Favourite stadium? I have good memories of my CL debut at Old Trafford, spectacular atmosphere. The Theatre of Dreams, as they say.

In the last 15 to 20 years the best central midfielder that I have seen - the most complete - is SCHOLES

There are two types of football - there's physical football and football talent.

Some teams can't or don't pass the ball. What are you playing for? What's the point? That's not football. Combine, pass, play. That's football - for me, at least.

In futsal, you see whether a player is really talented. You notice the small details in quality, class and tactical understanding.

Maybe one small regret is that I never got to play with Paul Scholes - but I was never going to leave Barcelona and he was never going to leave Manchester United.

In football, the result is an impostor. You can do things really, really well but not win. There's something greater than the result, more lasting - a legacy.

Celtic, like Barcelona, are more than a football club. Our clubs are a symbol of a culture and community that has not always been made welcome in their respective countries.

To me Paul is a role model. He is the best midfielder I've seen in the last 15 or 20 years.

Oh, Lizzy! do anything rather than marry without affection.

The desire for connection with the Divine and our formless inner self is at the foundation of all desire for human connection.

So many people of liberal persuasion value their own progressive opinions more than they value the people they hold those opinions about.

Anything that's new wave is new. As far as punk rock goes, I've never really been exposed to any.

I think that some works are more accessible than others.

Singing in Yiddish was a great thrill for me and came about through Joe Papp, the founder of The Public Theater.

Romance is not an idea, but a moment. An unspoken glance when someone looks into your eyes and knows exactly who you are, what you need.

Bring anger and pride under your feet, turn them into a ladder and climb higher.

I had a cat, though. I wanted to name the frogs, because I watched them grow, but there were too many.

An unaspiring person believes according to what he achieves. An aspiring person achieves according to what he believes.
