I think every player enjoys praise and I have to work extremely hard on the training ground to bring my game together.

Before my mother died, she told me not to leave Chelsea.

Barcelona are my favourite team in Spain, let's put it that way...

I think as far as kids go, you just have to work hard. Work on your skills, keep focused.

Goals never come easy. No one gives you goals.

I can't stress the importance of working hard enough, work on all aspects of your game. If you does that and you have the ability, you'll come through.

I think about all my successes and failures and sometimes the failures stick in your head as much as the wins. But you do move on.

I am a man who likes to play consistently; I always play better when I'm on a run of games.

If I lose the ball, I lose it trying to do the right thing. That's the way it is.

When you take a lot of stick you want to ram it down people's throats.

I have never seen a player as driven and determined as me, quietly determined; that's why I always want to do the best.

For me at age 11, I had a pair of binoculars and looked up to the moon, and the moon wasn't just bigger, it was better. There were mountains and valleys and craters and shadows. And it came alive.

I wear Blundstones for hiking. They're like a work boot with a bit of grip, so you can wear them all day. They're quite groovy.

I want to be sure I can deliver what people expect to hear. I just don't know if I can physically do it. Or if I should.

I would sooner be a foreigner in Spain than in most countries. How easy it is to make friends in Spain!

Globalization is a form of totalitarianism... It is the rich who rule, and the poor live as they can.

The only thing I'm afraid of is bees. I don't like bees. I'm allergic to them.

I've got no problems with my age. I rejoice in the knowledge I have accrued and savor the greatest moments, because I know how fast it goes.

The Bible is the chief moral cause of all that is good and the best corrector of all that is evil in human society; the best book for regulating the temporal [secular] concerns of men.

I have collected all the writings of the Empire and burnt those which were of no use.
