Bill Shankly
In my time at Anfield we always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside - Liverpool and Liverpool reserves.
Bill Shankly
First is first,Second is nothing

Train the right way. Help each other. It's a form of socialism without the politics.
Bill Shankly
The very word 'Anfield' means more to me than I can describe.
Bill Shankly
At a football club, there's a holy trinity - the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don't come into it. They are only there to sign the checks.
Bill Shankly
He's not just the best centre-forward in the British Isles, but the only one. (about Ian St John)
Bill Shankly
I was the best manager in Britain because I was never devious or cheated anyone. I’d break my wife’s legs if I played against her, but I’d never cheat her.

Just go out and drop a few hand grenades all over the place, son. (to Kevin Keegan)

Bill Shankly

Bill Shankly
It's a 90 minute game for sure. In fact I used to train for a 190 minute game so that when the whistle blew at the end of the match I could have played another 90 minutes.
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
Its great grass at Anfield, professional grass.
Bill Shankly
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 (soccer) is a matter of life and death, except more important.
Bill Shankly
The difference between Everton and the Queen Mary is that Everton carry more passengers!
