More quotes by Pele
Football is the only sport where you put people together, it doesn't matter if you are rich, or poor, or black, or white. It is one nation. This is the beauty of football.
Pele
A lot of people, when a guy scores a lot of goals, think, 'He's a great player', because a goal is very important, but a great player is a player who can do everything on the field. He can do assists, encourage his colleagues, give them confidence to go forward. It is someone who, when a team does not do well, becomes one of the leaders.
Pele
When I was playing, they said soccer was a man's world and women should remain on the sidelines, all I can say is I'm glad I never had to go up against Mia Hamm
Pele
A penalty is a cowardly way to score.
Pele
People always ask me: 'When is the new Pele going to be born?' Never. My father and mother have closed the factory.
Pele
I don't believe there is such a thing as a 'born' soccer player. Perhaps you are born with certain skills and talents, but quite frankly it seems impossible to me that one is actually born to be an ace soccer player
Pele
He is the greatest player in the world right now, without a doubt, he is the player who gives Brazilians the most joy. (on Ronaldinho)
Pele
Success isn't determined by how many times you win, but by how you play the week after you lose.
Pele
I think that France, Germany, Spain, Holland and England will join Brazil in the semi-finals.
Pele
Great teams are not made up of many well-rounded players. Great teams are made up of a variety of players, each having their own strengths.
Pele
Over the years I've learnt to live with two persons in my heart. One is Edson, who has fun with his friends and family the other is the football player Pele. I didn't want the name. 'Pele' sounds like baby-talk in Portuguese.
Pele
Everyone talks about the forwards, the players when they are scoring goals. But sometimes I look for the complete player not just the players who score but those who can pass.
Pele
If you ever want to be a decent player, you have to be able to use both feet without stopping to think about it.
Pele
His left foot is fantastic. It's like Mozart. God gave Freddy the gift to play soccer. If he is prepared mentally and physically, nobody will stop him. (on Freddy Adu)
Pele
The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.
Pele
I played futsal growing up in Baurd. In futsal you need to think quick and play quick so its easier for you when you move to normal football.
Pele
George Best was the greatest player in the world.
Pele
Football is the best, is the biggest sport in the world.
Pele
Neymar is undoubtedly the best player in Brazil. He deserves to play in the best team in the world next to the best player in the world, Messi.He is a very good player with great quality and a great future.I have no doubt. For me, Neymar is a genius.
Pele
I sometimes lie awake at night and wonder why I am still so popular and, to be honest, I don't know.
Pele
