“In England, you have stadiums in the middle of the city.”

I know I’m more on television, and I’m more recognisable than maybe even the players because they run and train, but I just stand there, and my face does all these funny things that everyone can see all the time.

Liverpool is a club with a big, big, big history, and all the clubs in the world have a big history if the present is not too successful.

When we have the ball, the other team has to run. The most important thing is for the players to be prepared to be a little bit wild.

I’ve met some Evertonians in the street, and they’ve been friendly. I’ve had taxi drivers who have been Everton fans. They’ve been really nice.

In Germany, they all thought I was a bit mental, very emotional.

We don’t want people to leave the stadium until the game finishes.

It’s absolutely normal that different human beings want to go different ways.

When the players go home, I can’t tell them what to do, so you need to create an atmosphere of trust. I don’t want to think, ‘What are they doing now? Do I need to call them?’

Life is too short not to celebrate nice moments!

My experience is listen, see, feel – and then think about what you change.

When I was a player there, we had 800 supporters on rainy Saturday afternoons, and if we died, no one would notice or come to our funeral. But we loved the club, and we have this same feeling at Dortmund.

The German word ‘will’ is the English word ‘want,’ so that’s a little bit of the problem.

I am a very emotional guy. What I love, I do with all I have.

He is really something. I love him. He is Sir Arsene Wenger.

I love football and the intensity of football in Liverpool, this is what is very good for me.

I only change things where I know about a situation. I’d never change just for change.

Eventually there are going to be cities in space.

I loathe crowds. I especially dont like cities.

Cities all over the world are getting bigger as more and more people move from rural to urban sites, but that has created enormous problems with respect to environmental pollution and the general quality of life.

A natural disaster in one American city is a natural disaster in every American city, including Fresno and, for that matter, every city and small town in the San Joaquin Valley.

You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition.

You don’t need a city charter to know that education is the foundation of any community.

If youre a singer, you do concerts, and you get that interaction with fans and see what cities in what part of the world come out to see you.

I played with Joey Mullen back in Salt Lake City before he got called up to St. Louis. He was the first player ever to score 20 goals in the American League and 20 in the NHL. I’ve kept in contact with him and he’s a great guy.
