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
Bill Shankly
Don't worry, Alan. At least you'll be able to play close to a great team. (to Alan Ball, who'd just signed for Everton)

Bill Shankly
He's not just the best centre-forward in the British Isles, but the only one. (about Ian St John)
Bill Shankly
Aim for the sky and you'll reach the ceiling. Aim for the ceiling and you'll stay on the floor.

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
I’ve been a slave to football. It follows you home, it follows you everywhere, and eats into your family life. But every working man misses out on some things because of his job.
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.

If you can't support us when we lose or draw, don't support us when we win
