“But, at the moment, when I step on the pitch, when I have the ball I know it’s mine. It’s just a feeling.”

I have to say that when I was young, when any politician was talking I wasn’t even interested. Maybe they were saying some nice stuff, but then if you put Michael Jordan on TV, I was interested!

I’ll never forget the club or him I don’t see Arsenal without Arsene Wenger.

I can’t stay in the box and wait for the ball. I can’t – I would die.

People always see the goals, and for me, strikers are not only about scoring goals.

Quite simply, it is true that I can be a pig! It is not a lie to say that. Sometimes, I feel that I am in the right even when I am wrong.

I always think about what I missed, and I think that was my driving force – never be satisfied with what I’ve done.

I take the ball, I go wide, I cross, I shoot, but when the moment beckons, I am ready to make the difference.

Everybody knows how much I love Arsenal – I became a fan. And to be out here celebrating a goal against Tottenham, there’s not much else to say after thatLike I’ve said before, Once a Gooner, always a Gooner.

It was tough at the time but when I was younger, my Dad. I would say my Dad, because without him I wouldn’t have been here. I mean it was tough for me because he was really demanding. With him, it was never enough, you know, anything I did was never enough.

Sometimes in football you have to score goals.

I only deal in what is real. To be honest, I’ve never thought about what I could get out of football or where it would take me. I just wanted to play. I’m the same now.

That’s the way I’ve been educated: I always think about what I missed and the things that you did, you did them, so you don’t have to think about them any more.

So many people say that obviously my game has changed since I arrived here and I say that it’s good that it changed, otherwise it would show a lack of intelligence.

We all love the first Rocky, but I’m not too sure about the last one.

Barcelona is always a club that, at the beginning of the season, wants to win everything. I will try my best to do that with them and I’m sure I will help as much as I can.

I would love this place to be my garden. (on Arsenal’s old stadium)

Meditation is not about feeling a certain way. It’s about feeling the way you feel.

One of the most incredible feelings is feeling at home through places, people, within yourself, and who you are.

The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.

You can only do good if you feel good.

I only want to hit my targets if the aiming and the hitting both feel good.

If we cannot have moral feelings against homosexuality, can we have it against murder? Can we have it against other things?

Love consists not in feeling great things but in having great detachment and in suffering for the Beloved.

I want to surrender to the feelings and shapes of words and not stop until I am clearly heard by myself and my God.
