More quotes by 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 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.

I think that France, Germany, Spain, Holland and England will join Brazil in the semi-finals.
Pele
Everything is practice.

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
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
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
Most important is be a good man.
Pele
The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning.
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 want to do my best to make the people happy. I play with my heart for the sport.
Pele
Brazil, always they buy from the United States. The first who was sell to the United States was football.
Pele
There is always someone out there getting better than you by training harder than you.
