Many years ago when I first started my career Maradona told me "to enjoy and play as you know", and that's stayed with me ever since and is the best advice I've been given.

You have to fight to reach your dream. You have to sacrifice and work hard for it.

The best decisions aren't made with your mind, but with your Instinct.

I don't need the best hairstyle or the best body. Just give me a ball at my feet and I'll show you what I can do.

What I do is play soccer, which is what I like.

You can overcome anything, if and only if you love something enough

Barcelona is my home and I hope that I stay here for many years.

My ambition is always to get better and better.

There are more important things in life than winning or losing a game.

The day you think there is no improvements to be made is a sad one for any player.

You cannot allow your desire to be a winner to be diminished by achieving success before and I believe there is room for improvement in every sportsman.

My friend "M" says the irony of being a zombie is that everything is funny, but you can't smile, because your lips have rotted off.

When your goal is not fame or notoriety, you can simply show up, offer compassion to people, and let God do His work.

Keenness is dangerous but also rebirth of thought and mind. Complacency is the death of ideals. Always stay keen.

I guess the bigger you dream, the further you have to fall if you don't get it, so it can be a bit of a scary thing to be that ambitious.

The world exists only when we think about it; creation stories are for children. In reality the world is created every moment.

If you work so hard to reach your goal but you lose your pole in the very last run, that's hard to take.

I see myself as the oldest griot tradition of speaking to truth out here. There's a dark side that people don't even know is there.

If I'm dreaming please don't wake me up cause baby I can't get enough of what you do.

What's not often in the present moment is the thinking mind.

But thought's the slave of life, and life time's fool.
