I’ve decided to pick my moment to retire very carefully – in about 200 years’ time.

I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one.

We had a good team on paper. Unfortunately, the game was played on grass.

Don't send me flowers when I'm dead. If you like me, send them while I'm alive.

If a chairman sacks the manager he initially appointed, he should go as well.

If I had an argument with a player we would sit down for twenty minutes, talk about it and then decide I was right!

Players lose you games, not tactics. There's so much crap talked about tactics by people who barely know how to win at dominoes.

On occasions I have been big-headed. I think most people are when they get in the limelight. I call myself Big Head just to remind myself not to be.

They say Rome wasn't built in a day, but I wasn't on that particular job.

Saturday comes again, welcome or not, it comes again like it always does, welcome or not, wanted or not, another judgment day - The chance to be saved, the chance to be damned.

If God had wanted us to play football in the sky, He'd have put grass up there.

There are certain things in life that you'll be forgiven for, no matter how thoughtless or stupid or reckless, but if you do that same thing twice, you're on your own.

You hire the best people you can possibly find. Then it's up to you to create an environment where great people decide to stay and invest their time.

You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.

I walked around the block twice, passed 200 people and failed to see a human being.

I want to learn how to speak Italian. For years, I'd wished I could speak Italian--a language I find more beautiful than roses :)

Be as romantic as you please about love ... but you mustn't be romantic about money.

The intensely felt subjective image is always the reason for making a first rate picture.

If you want to get somewhere in this life, learn to draw beautiful women.

I want to tell beautiful stories. I know I want to tell stories that appeal to a large audience. I want to make movies that appeal to mass culture.

If the church does not identify with the marginalized, it will itself be marginalized. This is God's poetic justice.
