What matters to me more than anything is that when all of this is over, football is the winner.

FIFA stands for discipline, respect, fair-play, not just on the field of play, but in our society as well.

What I am most proud of is the legacy of hope that FIFA and football leaves around the world. It makes all of the efforts and energy I pour into this job worth it.

Fifa cannot sit by and see greed rule the football world. Nor shall we.

Why is it good for football to take the excitement away from fans by overcharging them for tickets to see their team?

We shall wonder if one day our game is played on another planet? Why not? Then we will have not only a World Cup we will have inter-planetary competitions.

We cannot allow the reputation of football and FIFA to be dragged through the mud any longer.

Racism and discrimination of any kind have no place in football.

Football is hope. To be a better human being but also hope one day, one day, to leave your country to be somewhere, let's say admired, as a football star.

It's up to the national associations and their leagues to limit the entry of foreign players.

It is very important that football can see beyond religion but FIFA does not just ignore its impact.

Well, I've ruffled a few feathers at all the institutions I've led. But I think that's part of leadership.

I don't think of myself as a dissident, and I'm more of an immigrant than an exile.

"That's done it!" said Sam. "Now I've rung the front-door bell!"

I think I'm very conscientious of how precious life is and how quickly life can be taken away from you, especially at times when it can be least expected.

The religious man fears, the man of honor scorns, to do an ill action.

We're only as sick as the secrets we keep.

What makes me feel old is having no hair on the top of my head.

Where thou art gone, adieus and farewells are a sound unknown.
