More quotes by 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
George Best was the greatest player in the world.
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
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
Football is the best, is the biggest sport in the world.
Pele

The World Cup is a very complicated tournament - six games, seven if you make it to the final - and maybe if you lose one game you're out, even if you're the best.
Pele
Of course, my father was a soccer player. He used to play very good. Then, when I was young, eight or nine years old, ten years old, I just want to be like my father.
Pele
Yes, I have a lot of business interests. But I don't work for just anyone, and I choose the companies very carefully.
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
When football stars disappear, so do the teams, and that is a very curious phenomenon. It is like in the theatre, in a play, where there is a great star. If the star is not well, the whole cast suffers.
Pele
Enthusiasm is everything. It must be taut and vibrating like a guitar string.
Pele
Brazil is crazy about football. People, they wait for this moment, but this doesn't mean we are going to win the championship. That is the problem.
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
If you don't give education to people, it is easy to manipulate them.
Pele
Ronaldo has come through for the past two or three years and is the best in Europe. I think at the moment no doubt Ronaldo is the best player.
Pele
A team is not made up of isolated individuals. Always stay in the game. Don't be passive. Football is a team game. No one plays alone. Success depends on your whole team being a single unit.
Pele
Success isn't determined by how many times you win, but by how you play the week after you lose.
Pele
