More quotes by 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
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
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

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
Football is like a religion to me. I worship the ball, and I treat it like a god. Too many players think of a football as something to kick. They should be taught to caress it and to treat it like a precious gem.
Pele
No doubt, I am earning more money with my endorsements than I ever earned playing soccer.
Pele
To be a striker you need to be in good shape.
Pele
I think that France, Germany, Spain, Holland and England will join Brazil in the semi-finals.
Pele
I always think that I would have become an actor if I hadn't been a soccer player.
Pele
Enthusiasm is everything. It must be taut and vibrating like a guitar string.
Pele
Everything is practice.
Pele
George Best was the greatest player in the world.
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
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
