When times are difficult, I tell myself, 'I'm just passing through.'
Eric Cantona

I would like to compare football and cinema. I think it's very similar. It's two games... different games. You have to work very hard and find the confidence to enjoy it on the pitch or in the film.
Eric Cantona

I know that I have a face, a look, people aren't used to seeing. A presence.
