Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.

Newcastle fans never cease to amaze me. If there was a trophy for best supporters this lot would win it hands down every year.

Basically, a manager is a father figure to 20 or 25 blokes. It's about trying to get the best out of them and creating team spirit.

If you ask footballers to pick out the player they most admire, so many of them will pick Paul Scholes.

My motto in life is 'if you give 100 per cent then no one can ask any more'.

I have always said that the best feeling in the world is scoring a goal. Don't tell my missus that, but it is. When that ball hits the back of the net, it is fantastic.

Defeat is not worth thinking about.

I don't know what I'd have become if I hadn't been a footballer; I wrote down 'dustbin man' on a careers questionnaire at school till my dad made me change it to 'joiner'.

I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.

If you want to have a great party at Wembley, don't invite the Germans.

Delia was an overbearing cake with condescending frosting, and frankly, I was on a diet.

The best shows succeed because they tap into a national conversation.

It's not like I'm an introvert. You get to know me, I can have a conversation with you. But in front of the media, I'm probably more of a quiet guy.

Many enlightened persons are never very well known. Many are reclusive. They live in little villages in India or up in the high Himalayas in Tibet. Some have no students at all. Some have a few.

When I was a kid growing up in the '60s, music was an outlet for enlightenment, frustration, rebellion. It was more about individualism. Today it's just like a big business.

It's my job to build the people who are going to build the company.

In that the wisdom of the few becomes available to the many, there is progress in human affairs; without it, the static routine of tradition continues.

If you can think about what you want in your mind, and make that your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life.
