More quotes by Pele
You must respect people and work hard to be in shape. And I used to train very hard. When the others players went to the beach after training, I was there kicking the ball.
Pele
Brazil, always they buy from the United States. The first who was sell to the United States was football.
Pele
Everything on earth is a game. A passing thing. We all end up dead. We all end up the same, don't we?
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
I sometimes lie awake at night and wonder why I am still so popular and, to be honest, I don't know.
Pele

Pele

Pele
Yes, Ronaldinho is bigger than me. Exactly 4 centimeters.
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
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
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
People always ask me: 'When is the new Pele going to be born?' Never. My father and mother have closed the factory.
Pele
A penalty is a cowardly way to score.
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
There is always someone out there getting better than you by training harder than you.
Pele
If you don't give education to people, it is easy to manipulate them.
Pele
Success isn't determined by how many times you win, but by how you play the week after you lose.
Pele
Football is the best, is the biggest sport in the world.
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
I love people. I wanted to be with the people. I wanted to give something back what I get from football, because God gave everything to me.
Pele
