“My first win feels better than a draw!”

I am a normal guy from the Black Forest, and I do not compare myself with the geniuses.

As Dortmund manager, I lived in a street, and my two neighbours were Schalke fans. They showed it every day, flying flags!

My father gave me some advice when I was very young – whatever someone tells you in the future, don’t forget Pele is the best.

You can speak about spirit, or you can live it.

When you play sports like tennis, you’re alone, and that’s a good school for life, but it’s also a good school for life to bring your best and make those around you better, too – helping others in difficult moments.

I’m looking forward to the intensity of football and how the people live football in Liverpool. It’s a special club.

I didn’t take many penalties, but I never missed one.

If you want special results, you have to feel special things and do special things together.

If two smart, intelligent, clever guys sit together on a table, and you both want the same, where can be the problem? We all want to be successful.

I get a little bit emotional during a game!

It is my job to help the players react better.

I understand aggressiveness in only one way: being prepared to hurt yourself, not someone else.

I love pets, especially dogs.

I’ve thought sometimes about what I like about football, and it’s playing together.

My heart breaks. Really, I have tears in my eyes. Central midfield is Shinji’s best role.

The emotion to handle the pressure is one of the biggest challenges in football – it’s the top challenge.

The work of art wants to draw people out of their state of comfort.

Instead of boiling up individuals into the species, I would draw a chalk circle round every individuality, and preach to it to keep within that, and preserve and cultivate its identity.

Fate leads the willing, and th’ unwilling draws.

Would mistrust a poetry critic who couldn’t produce a rhyming couplet. Could one write about art without knowing how to draw?

Beauty or beast, the modern skyscraper is a major force with a strong magnetic field. It draws into its physical being all of the factors that propel and characterize modern civilization.

Every creative act draws on the past whether it pretends to or not. It draws on what it knows. There’s no such thing, really, as a creative act in a vacuum.

Our yesterday’s to-morrow now is gone, And still a new to-morrow does come on. We by to-morrow draw out all our store, Till the exhausted well can yield no more.

Frankly, it’s good enough to lock up in a drawer.
