• I'm realising my dream of owning a top football club. Some will doubt my motives, others will think I'm crazy.
  Roman Abramovich Quotes
• I don’t know where I want to go to school, but I know that I want to go to school and play football.
  Christina Aguilera Quotes
• Running has always been part of me. I was a 1500 metres champion four years on the trot when I was at school and I used to do cross-country competitions, which I loved. In fact, I used to get more nervous doing those runs than I ever do playing in front of 50,000 people. Even then, though, I also used to grab a football and dash off to the park. I would play on my own for hours or else with my Dad.
  David Beckham Quotes
• I hope I become a better player day after day. This is one of my goals. I want to improve in every situation, but when you are playing along with top figures, it is a quality bonus and a bigger effort. Besides, the Spanish Liga also gives you the chance to progress and improve.
  David Beckham Quotes
• When you've been doing well all season and your club has been doing well you want to be involved in every game and you want to keep playing. If you're not going well and the team's not playing well you just want to stop playing.
  David Beckham Quotes
• I stay out just hitting balls and I am out on the park as long as the manager lets me. In fact. he sometimes pulls me in and tells me to get some rest. I occasionally try to sneak out for a bit longer but you are always in full view of the boss. My belief is that you practise to make perfect. If I didn't practise I suppose I wouldn't be able to put the ball on a sixpence as often as I do - and when it doesn't come right, you just have to practise more.
  David Beckham Quotes
• It's is always nice to be respected as a footballer. I am going to go out and enjoy the game and if I can set one or two goals up then so be it - I would love to.
  David Beckham Quotes
• Even when I was a boy I always tied to strike the ball properly and I have seen videos of me at six or seven doing just that. It is all getting more notice now because United play so many big games and because of all the goals I make.
  David Beckham Quotes
• I think I can get all the satisfaction from football I need at the moment. I don't need to look anywhere else.
  David Beckham Quotes
• It is the best feeling in the world playing for your country. Even as a young lad it is something you always want to do.
  David Beckham Quotes
• Pelé was a complete player. I didn't see him live obviously, because I wasn't born.
  David Beckham Quotes
• If someone had said in 1998 after my sending off in the World Cup that I would be leading my country out within three years I would have laughed in their face.
  David Beckham Quotes
• I dream a lot about football and a lot of them have come true for me.
  David Beckham Quotes
• Whenever Manchester Utd lose people always say there's a crisis.
  David Beckham Quotes
• Definitely. It's been very tough. It's been two years of sacrifice. But now it's over. It's done. I've had a couple of muscular problems, yes, but regular, normal stuff. The serious injury has been defeated. I am ready to play.
  Cristiano Ronaldo Quotes
• But I hope to maintain my credibility after I stop playing. Because, yes of course, now I play and I score goals and children all over are mad about me. Not just poor children - all children. We can make them really happy by the way we play, though I have to say that it's the poor ones that I think of most, the ones who can't come and watch the games at the stadium. We mean so much to them. That's why I'm so committed to this work. Later, after you've stopped playing, it's harder to have the same impact. But I will give it a go. I want to continue doing this kind of work for ever.
  Cristiano Ronaldo Quotes
• Beckham has a great vision of the game. He is a very intelligent player. He strikes the ball well. He has a very strong, very powerful, very precise shot.
  Cristiano Ronaldo Quotes
• I'm in love with football, but I just needed to recapture that strength to train and play. So many people helped me along the way that I'm afraid to leave anyone out. Above all, though, I want to mention the help of my medical team that has been working alongside me for the past two years.
  Cristiano Ronaldo Quotes
• I've hardly stopped in these past few months. I've been doing two training sessions a day - morning and afternoon - which is quite an achievement, and it has been no problem. It's been so great to kick a ball around again - I've missed it so much. I can now kick a ball reasonably gently and I've been able to take part in some little games, just kickabouts between friends, like you do when you're a kid - two against two, three against three, that sort of thing. They know not to touch me, and that they have to let me score!
  Cristiano Ronaldo Quotes
• We play such a huge amount nowadays. So many championships, so many games. And you get so many more injuries. But, well...there you are. That's the way it is. We have to make the best of what we have.
