My son is a Liverpool fan, and he was already kicking a ball before he was one. He was born in the football city, he had no choice.

If football was a drug, I would have died from overdose.

Purpose without virtue is vanity.

I always live in the present. I never dream about what might happen. Why? It might not.

I've always been a sad person. I'm a happy person too, but it's a thing in my brain or my spirit or something, I'm just sad and really acutely aware of mortality and loss.

Football is a team sport and not an individual sport. We win as a team, and every individual is better if we are part of the team.

I don't know what to say about myself. I don't know myself (laughs). People say my humility but I believe we're all humble in our own way. I try to stay close to my family and friends.

I know my statistics have not been the same as in other years but I'm fighting to get back to those statistics.

When I retire, the only thing that concerns me is that no one can say that I was a bad team-mate or disrespectful or self-important.

Liverpool is a fundamental part of my life. They don't remember me that way, but time will change that. I could not have chosen a better place to go when I left Atletico.

If I score against Liverpool I will not celebrate.

Brave men do not boast nor bluster. Deeds, not words, speak for such.

Getting into debt, is getting into a tanglesome net.

The distinction between what is real and what is imaginary is not one that can be finely maintained ... all existing thing are ... imaginary.

I've always expected the worst, and it's always worse than I expected.

Marry me. Marry me, my wonderful, darling friend.

The day is committed to error and floundering; success and achievement are matters of long range.

Two seemingly incompatible conceptions can each represent an aspect of the truth... They may serve in turn to represent the facts without ever entering into direct conflict.

The ability to defend yourself is a basic necessity like food and water. We exempt food and water from the sales tax.

I approach most things in life with a dangerous level of confidence to balance my generally low self-esteem.

A man can make what he wants of himself if he truly believes that he must be ready for hard work and many heartbreaks.
