A Febre do Futebol

"DON'T SAY THAT! Please! That is the worst, most stupid thing anyone could say! Cause it quite clearly isn't "only a game." I mean if it was do you honestly think I'd care this much? Eh? Eighteen years! Eight-teen years! Do you know what you wanted eighteen years ago? Or ten? Or five? Did you want to be Head of Year at North London Comprehensive, I doubt it. I'd doubt if you wanted anything for that long. And if you had, and if you'd spent three months thinking that finally, FINALLY you were gonna get it and just when you think it's there it's taken away from you... I mean I don't care what it is, a car, a job, an Oscar, the baby... then you'd understand how I was feeling tonight. But there isn't, and you don't, so..."

in Fever Pitch (1997)

Só um verdadeiro adepto de futebol é que sabe o que é o amor a um clube. Porque ser adepto de um clube não é algo que se possa mudar, é algo que faz parte de nós e nos acompanhará para sempre na nossa vida. Nós até podemos chegar a um ponto em que o futebol não é nada para nós, mas aquele amor ficará lá sempre.

Eu não sou do FC Porto porque ele ganha, eu sou do FC Porto porque isso faz parte de mim e da pessoa que eu sou!
