“I’m not sure what you need first – the players believing or others believing in them – but in the end, both have to think it.”

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.

I have only one understanding of development and of making success, and that’s by going step by step.

You should know both the universal and the personal, the realm of forms and the freedom to not cling to them.

I was born and raised in New York, but my family on both sides is of Italian descent.

The problem is that the Iraqi people are facing atrocities from both sides – Zarqawi and also the American troops at times.

A madman and an arahant both smile, but the arahant knows why while the madman doesn’t.

The forms of the world have their place, but in another way, there is nothing there. To be free, we need to respect both of these truths.

What the Nation must realize is that the home, when both parents work, is non-existent. Once we have honestly faced that fact, we must act accordingly.

And balancing motherhood and career makes you both a better mother and a better businesswoman.

I’ll fight both of them in one night, and I bet it won’t go 12 rounds.
