“I've seen other people grow up and not have respect for human beings. ...” — Yannick Bolasie Quote

I've seen other people grow up and not have respect for human beings. But even though I play football, I'm still able to talk to everyone on the estate. Whenever I go, I can literally talk to anyone that I meet and everyone I have known from my past.

I go to play for Congo now and it's a reality check. You see how it is for some people and you don't take things for granted. A lot of the people in Congo, to get the opportunity that I have had, I don't know what they'd do.

Darren Campbell has helped me out a lot with my sprinting mechanics. These are things I've always wanted to do, but neglected as I am already fast and strong.

I've always just wanted to play football.

Before children, even the most cynical people throw down their usual masks and become capable of feeling the purity and love which all human beings seek.

As human beings, of course, we're all compromised and complex and contradictory and if a screenplay can express those contradictions within a character and if there's room for me to express them, that's a part I'd love to play, so much more than a character who is heroic and one-dimensional.

All human beings are intrinsically valuable, and the intentional taking of human life by private persons is always wrong.

Human beings have to create hope. They have to. You have to have something you hold onto as being a possibility. Otherwise, why go on?
