Boris Johnson - June 2012
My speaking style was criticised by no less an authority than Arnold Schwarzenegger. It was a low moment, my friends, to have my rhetorical skills denounced by a monosyllabic Austrian cyborg.
It is easy to make promises - it is hard work to keep them.
I suppose with houses and assets, then I guess I would be a millionaire. But so are a lot of people.
It is possible to have a pretty good life and career being a leech and a parasite in the media world, gadding about from TV studio to TV studio, writing inconsequential pieces and having a good time. But in the end you have a great sense of personal dissatisfaction.
In Italy, you know you've found a truly authentic restaurant when they don't have an English menu. In India, it's when there are no utensils and you must eat with your hands.

Italy has changed. But Rome is Rome.
Italians are fantastic people, really. They can work you over in an alley while singing an opera.
Italy doesn't need something that is wrinkled, red and leaky, and smells like booze and narcotics. They've already got former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

Cristiano Ronaldo - November 2015
We want to win this World Cup. The group is very strong. And I want to take this opportunity to stop the talking about me. Stop asking other players about me. You can ask them questions about the World Cup and their expectations.
Cristiano Ronaldo - November 2022
I don't have respect for him because he doesn't show respect for me. If you don't have respect for me, I'm never gonna have respect for you.

It obviously bothers people when Real Madrid win. It makes them jealous.
I'm proud to play for Real Madrid because I have fun; when you no longer have fun it's a sign that it's time to leave. For now though, I'm happy here at the greatest club in the world.
I don't mind people hating me, because it pushes me.
I'm living a dream I never want to wake up from.

I am very happy to be part of this great club. I feel ready for a new challenge and to further grow here. I want to win everything with PSG.
Gianluigi Donnarumma - July 2021
My first good memory is the first day I played as a goalkeeper. My uncle would shoot and I would dive at the footballs. I was never afraid. Maybe that's why I chose goalkeeping.
I've also always thought that one never stops learning. Even after five years, 10 years, 20 years, I've never stopped learning.
The goalkeeper must be heard and command the defence for them to feel safe with me.
I keep my cool, this has always been a strength of mine.
Within our mandate, the ECB is ready to do whatever it takes to preserve the euro. Believe me, it will be enough.
Mario Draghi - am 26.07.2012

Jogi Löw - June 2021, about quitting his job as coach of the German team
We don't want to burn bridges, but if somebody interprets our good intentions as weakness, our reaction will be asymmetrical, rapid and harsh. We'll decide for ourselves in each case where the red line is.

Paul Pogba - August 2021
I like to try new looks and new haircuts. It's part of who I am.
Give up? I don't know what that means.
I always dream about winning the Ballon d'Or.
I do not live for people, for what they think, for them to say that I'm nice, good, the best, perfect. Everyone has their opinion. And I respect that.
Creativity is a huge part of my game as a player. It helps open doors which others don't see.
We can not love everyone and be loved by everyone. It would be perfection, and nothing is perfect in this world.
Barcelona is a fantastic football club, and I don't think there are many players who would be able to say no to them.
I'm addicted to football.
Sometimes the body just needs to take a break, and you need to listen.
At the end of the day, it doesn't matter who is scoring and who is not scoring. It's about winning games.
I think, for everyone who wants to get to the highest level, you have to be in the Premier League, of course.
I've always been a runner.

In that group we will be the favourite team, so it's our aim to win first place.
Jogi Löw - December 2020, about the group stage draw for the World Cup 2022
