I love Madrid. I am happy to be here. I have been here three years and hope to be here longer. But I am proud of where I come from and never forget the people I grew up with.

I have never had the opportunity to play in England, so I know little about it.

I have decided to come back for Les Bleus.

I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard.

We are well aware of the task ahead of us in what will be a very difficult match but which we all dream of playing.

I am first of all from La Castellane and Marseille.

I don't know if we are the best team in the world. I am lucky to be playing alongside some of the best players around. It's a dream.

I have no message.

The England team must always be respected. They always fight to the end.

Music was important. Football was the easy part.

The only important thing I have to say is that my father never fought against his country.

I was lucky to come from a difficult area. It teaches you not just about football but also life. There were lots of kids from different races and poor families. People had to struggle to get through the day.

To be recognised by a whole country is incredible. This is massive.

We were a family who had come from nothing and now we had respect from French people of all sorts.

A Mediterranean city is really my culture.

I love Madrid. I am happy to be here. I have been here three years and hope to be here longer. But I am proud of where I come from and never forget the people I grew up with.

I'm very inspired by him-it was my father who taught us that an immigrant must work twice as hard as anybody else, that he must never give up.

I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game.

It's the first time it's happened to me and maybe the last. It's a strange sensation, not normal for me. I can't remember scoring three goals, even when I was a kid.

My passion for the game comes from the city of Marseille itself. Unfortunately I can't go back there as much I want to because I play a lot here and abroad.

We must not let ourselves get driven off course, no matter what happens we must stick to our natural game.

We'll do it, we'll do it.

It will be a physical encounter but we must not respond in kind.

I am proud of where I come from and never forget the people I grew up with. Wherever I go, La Castellane is where I want to go back to.

I have won many awards and I am very happy about this, but I am not the best player in the world.

I think Marseille is probably a place like Liverpool, very vibrant and very tough.

It doesn't matter how many times you win an award, it is always very special.

It was my father who taught us that an immigrant must work twice as hard as anybody else, that he must never give up.

Life is full of regrets, but it doesn't pay to look back.

My memories of events and games are fragmented.

Real Madrid is the most important thing that happened to me, both as a footballer and as a person.

Sometimes words are harder than blows.

The door can never be closed for good to any player.

There are evil people, and I don't even want to hear those guys speak.

To be recognised by a whole country is incredible.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

I took Laura on a trip once where we followed the Immigrant Trail for about six hundred miles. She really learned a lesson. People forget too often how it was back then.

My biggest loss was the Olympics. I just can't forget losing. I never will.

Yes, but don't forget I also have the luxury of the worlds finest band when it gets lonely.

It's part of the calling to at least do a few songs in the show that give people some hope. There's so much hurt in this world and... music is such a great healing balm and a great way to forget your troubles.

Countries under foreign command quickly forget their history, their past, their tradition, their national symbols, their way of living, often their own literary language.

Forget the lottery. Bet on yourself instead.

Don't forget that the only two things people read in a story are the first and last sentences. Give them blood in the eye on the first one.

It makes me forget that I'm not going to be a major star and lead female in films whether it was 20 years ago, 10 years ago, five or in the future.

What kind of people do they think we are? Is it possible they do not realize that we shall never cease to persevere against them until they have been taught a lesson which they and the world will never forget?

Sometimes songwriters and singers forget that. They get a melody in their head and the notes will take precedence, so that they wind up forcing a word onto a melody. It doesn't ring true.

Seeking to forget makes exile all the longer; the secret of redemption lies in remembrance.

I think we typically, as Northerners, stereotype what the South is in so many negative ways. We kind of forget all the beautiful things that they contribute to make this country a country.

I must be careful not to get trapped in the past. That's why I tend to forget my songs.
