When I lose my temper it's because I decide to. If I do something it's because I want to do it.

I don't celebrate because I'm only doing my job. When a postman delivers letters, does he celebrate?

There's only one that is a little stronger than me: Messi. All the others are behind me.

People who know me, love me. People who don't know me love me too... or they hate me.

I sent my Christmas wishes to him, but he didn't answer. He's the world's best coach, but as a man he still has to learn manners and respect.

I am different - if you can find another like me, then I will buy you dinner!

I will not accept racism at all. It's unacceptable. If someone throws a banana at me in the street, I will go to jail, because I will kill them.

When I wasn't famous, I had a lot of friends, almost all of them Italian. The racism only started when I started to play football.

When I score I don't celebrate, its my job, does a postman celebrate when he delivers post?

You can't delete racism. It's like a cigarette. You can't stop smoking if you don't want to, and you can't stop racism if people don't want to. But I'll do everything I can to help.

Is instinct in the head or in the heart? Off the field, I follow my good instincts which steer me in the right direction. Sometimes on the field my head leads me astray. That's what I believe.

.... I was telling you... but you don't listen to me....

I love the feeling of the fresh air on my face and the wind blowing through my hair.

Growing up, I really liked 'Star Wars.' Han Solo would've been really cool to meet. But my stuff was real low-brow. I was watching 'Bugs Bunny.'

Clinging to the past is the problem. Embracing change is the answer.

It's as if there's a magnet on the outside of the posts and bar.

I love playing piano, too, but I don't sit around doing it all day. Part of that's because I don't have one in my house - I only have synths.

If you have a drug problem, you should be sent to a doctor, not a jail cell.

When someone pushes you down you must get up and stand on your own two feet even if your scared to do it. Only you can set limits to your success.

A man is never alone, not only because he is with himself and his own thoughts, but because he is with the Devil, who ever consorts with our solitude.

Only the rational and useful is beautiful.
