I'll be supporting anyone but England.

I don't play any tournaments to come second best.

It's not the end of the world to lose.

You have to go into each match believing you can beat all of the players.

Give it everything you've got. Leave nothing out there.

To worry before the common people worries; To enjoy only after the people can enjoy.

There aint any news in being good. You might write the doings of all the convents of the world on the back of a postage stamp, and have room to spare.

We condemn the view that the (U.S.-led) occupation's existence is beneficial for the Iraqi people because if it ended, there would be sectarian war - as if sectarian war has not already begun.

I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life.
