I'm a people's man - only the people matter.
Bill Shankly
Ian Callaghan is everything good that a man can be. No praise is too high for him. Words cannot do justice to the amount he has contributed to the game. Ian Callaghan will go down as one of the game's truly great players.
Bill Shankly
A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing.
Bill Shankly
Laddie, that man scored 200 goals in 270 matches - an incredible record - and he has won cup after cup as a manager. When he talks, pin back your ears.
Bill Shankly
Although I'm a Scot, I'd be proud to be called a Scouser.

If a man….who’s playing in front of the public, is being well paid, and he doesn’t dedicate himself to the job, I’d be hard on him. If I could I would put him in jail, out of the road of society. Because he’s a menace

Football (soccer) is a matter of life and death, except more important.

I have always had the deepest respect for Bill Nicholson as a person and as a manager. The Spurs boss is an honest Yorkshireman and you will go a long way before finding a straighter character than that. Bill has never wavered in his determination to give White Hart Lane fans the best.
Bill Shankly
Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.
Bill Shankly
Fire in your belly comes from pride and passion in wearing the red shirt. We don't need to motivate players because each of them is responsible for the performance of the team as a whole. The status of Liverpool's players keeps them motivated.
Bill Shankly
The difference between Everton and the Queen Mary is that Everton carry more passengers!
Bill Shankly
The very word 'Anfield' means more to me than I can describe.
Bill Shankly
The socialism I believe in is everybody working for the same goal and everybody having a share in the rewards. That’s how I see football, that’s how I see life.
Bill Shankly
I have not been short of invitations to other clubs and have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool.
Bill Shankly
Chairman Mao has never seen a greater show of red strength.
Bill Shankly
Train the right way. Help each other. It's a form of socialism without the politics.
Bill Shankly
Above all, I would like to be remembered as a man who was selfless, who strove and worried so that others could share the glory, and who built up a family of people who could hold their heads up high and say 'We're Liverpool'.
