The people that have really made the contributions have been the thinkers and the doers.

You need to be able to hit, kick, grapple, wrestle, but for me so much of this is about the mind, about feeling you are in complete control of the space around you, and you know what to do at any moment. That is a wonderful feeling, but it doesn’t just happen, you have to work for it, train for it, think about it all the time.

You dear women, I say thanks to you. Thank you for being the kind of people you are and doing the things you do.

The best thing I’ve done with my money is buying a house for my family. You wake up to a house you love and you feel like somebody.

The place where french-postmodernism has been really harmful is the Third World. Because Third World intellectuals are badly needed in popular movements, they can make contributions. And a lot of them is drawn away from this: antropologists, sociologists and others. They are drawn away in this arcane, and in my view, mostly meaningless discourses and are disassociated from popular struggles. And you can see the impact. They really indicate that the level of irrationality that grows out of this undermines the oportunities for doing something really significant and important. It is like consumerism because it diverts people from concentrating in a serious way and doing something about their own problems.

If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.

I enjoy the competition and whatever it takes throughout the competition, I will do it.

Just as one candle lights another and can light thousands of other candles, so one heart illuminates another heart and can illuminate thousands of other hearts.

It’s never a bad thing to ask for help if you need it or to tell somebody how you feel, showing your vulnerable side doesn’t make you weak, instead, I like to think of it as a chance to become stronger.

You have to be the antithesis of the status quo. You have to work against it. It’s not about a reaction. You don’t need to react to anything. We need to be proactive in our own movement of positivity.

I don’t want to make money; I want to make a difference.

There are still many causes worth sacrificing for, so much history yet to be made.

Your ability to keep doing interesting things is your willingness to be embarrassed and go back to step .

Barcelona is my life, they have brought me to where I am today, I could not leave, I don’t want to leave. My heart stays with Barcelona.

Motivation is not something I struggle with. I love playing football, I love being in training.
