More quotes by Eric Cantona
Often there are players who have only football as a way of expressing themselves and never develop other interests. And when they no longer play football, they no longer do anything they no longer exist, or rather they have the sensation of no longer existing.
Eric Cantona

Eric Cantona
What is the system? It revolves around the banks, the system is built on the power of the banks, so it can be destroyed through the banks.
Eric Cantona
I like to stay at home and make cinema in my head.
Eric Cantona
I am very mistrustful of people who are constantly over intellectualising things. It kills passion. You have to allow yourself to lose control from time to time.
Eric Cantona
