Some Notable EURO 2016 quotes
About 80 per cent of you here have at some point scratched your balls. It is not an issue in the team
~ Lukas Podolski (German football player, defending Germany's manager Joachim Low after Low was caught on camera scratching his 'intimates' and sniffing them after) Have you been drinking? ~ Roy Keane (Irish football Assistant Manager, responding when asked by a reporter if Ireland were favourites for their game against Belgium) I hope Puma does not produce condoms ~ Xherdan Shaqiri (Switzerland football player, commenting when his team’s Puma shirts disintegrated during their game against France) The last time I lifted a weight? Probably that can of Red Bull the other day ~ Jamie Vardy (English football player, who is known to be gym averse) That’s football. Sometimes you’re the dog, sometimes you’re the tree ~ Mario Gotze (German football player, when criticised on his performances at Euro 2016, two years after his goal won the 2014 World Cup final) |

I want to talk about the future. You were the future once

Funds were stolen under the pretense of a 1MDB investment in oil exploration.
On paper the US$1 billion was for resource rights, instead (it was) used for personal enrichment...(including) gambling debts in Las Vegas casions, a luxury yacht, interior decorators in London, millions in property including a Bombardier jet costing US$35 million. The Malaysian people were defrauded on an enourmous scale (in) a scheme which tentacles reached around the world ~ Andrew McCabe (Deputy Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, commenting on the civil complaints case lodged by the department to seize approximately US$1 billion of assets linked to 1MDB) |

I want to change history, do something important in my life, and influence individuals like we have with millions of small businesses on Alibaba. Then they love and respect you because you made their life important.

If there are no stupid questions, then what kind of questions do stupid people ask ? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions ?

There you go, I'm the greatest
~ Usain Bolt (Triple triple athletics Gold winner upon winning his 9th Gold and announcing his retirement from the Olympics) Will there be another Michael Phelps? Absolutely not. I'm not even looking. He's too special. It's not even once in a generation - it's maybe once in 10 generations that a Michael Phelps comes along ~ Bob Bowman (Phelps' coach, after the swimmer sealed his 23rd Gold medal) The only truth they told was they were drunk ~ Fernando Veloso (Head of the Civil Police of Rio de Janeiro, speaking about the alleged theft at gunpoint claimed by American swimmer Ryan Lochte, following an altercation at a petrol station) We have survived a war. There are still kids who don't know if their parents are alive, don't have anything to eat or books to go to school. So the fact of becoming Olympic champion is just huge for all of us ~ Majlinda Kelmendi (On winning Kosovo's first Olympic gold medal at its maiden Games) Outside Maracana after the Opening Ceremony there was a robbery attempt. Fortunately, they tried to rob two plain-clothes officers ~ Mario Andrada (Rio Olympics executive communications director, in explaining one of many crimes committed) I got frequently asked ‘do you shoot people?’ ~ Catherine Skinner (Australian trap shooting gold medallist commenting on how her childhood friends understood her pursuits) |
