More quotes by Mario Balotelli
Inside me I'm Ghanaian, and I'm proud to be African. But of course I'm Italian. I was born in Italy. I've never been to Africa in my life, but I will go one day.
Mario Balotelli
When I decide to score, I score. I know I am strong, but I believe it is not enough yet. I can kick fine, dribble very well, but I still have to improve.
Mario Balotelli
Sacrifice counts for a lot in sport. From a young age, I couldn't do the normal things that the boys of my age get to do. Maybe you have a nice car or a nice house, but at times you just want to be a normal guy and you can't.
Mario Balotelli
Rooney's good but not the best in Manchester.
Mario Balotelli
I know I have a responsibility as a role model to children and I try to fulfill that.
Mario Balotelli
Sometimes in football you deserve to win but lose. Other times you deserve to lose or draw but you win. That is the game, and it's why I've always said you should never try to predict anything in football, especially in Europe.
Mario Balotelli
I'm a naturalized Italian, but I'm from Ghana. I was abandoned by my parents and adopted by two angels. I suffer with racism everyday. I'm the first black to wear the jersey of Italy. I'm not angry, but my life experiencies make me act differently from other people. Then, try to learn more before you criticize me.
Mario Balotelli
Racist people are few, in the minority. But you can do nothing to change them. You can talk, you can do what you want, but you can't do anything because they are just stupid people.
Mario Balotelli
I can win the Ballon d'Or, but only if Messi's level drops a bit. It will be very complicated to do so if he keeps up his current form. I really believe I can win the award, but there's not much I can do if Messi maintains this level.
Mario Balotelli
I don't like golf. It's not for me, it's too quiet.
Mario Balotelli
I sent my Christmas wishes to him, but he didn't answer. He's the world's best coach, but as a man he still has to learn manners and respect.
Mario Balotelli
I don't celebrate because I'm only doing my job. When a postman delivers letters, does he celebrate?
Mario Balotelli
Many stories are invented about me - too many stories almost everyone uses me, and I'd say about 0.01 percent of the gossip is true.
Mario Balotelli
Is instinct in the head or in the heart? Off the field, I follow my good instincts which steer me in the right direction. Sometimes on the field my head leads me astray. That's what I believe.
Mario Balotelli
Yes, I think I am a genius, but not a rebel.
Mario Balotelli
Mancini is lucky. He has an owner [Sheikh Mansour] who speaks little and asks only: What do you need?
Mario Balotelli
For me, my mother is everything.
Mario Balotelli
You can't delete racism. It's like a cigarette. You can't stop smoking if you don't want to, and you can't stop racism if people don't want to. But I'll do everything I can to help.
Mario Balotelli
I will not accept racism at all. It's unacceptable. If someone throws a banana at me in the street, I will go to jail, because I will kill them.
Mario Balotelli
America is a great country. I've been in the south, in the center and in the north. I like it. Americans are very good people. There's just too much air-conditioning.
Mario Balotelli
