“I believe that, in principle, it is easier to get into the national te...” — Mats Hummels Quote

I believe that, in principle, it is easier to get into the national team if you perform well at Bayern, compared to what the benefits of playing for other clubs are.

In top form, Messi is the best footballer I have ever seen - period.

I rather win one championship as a key player than four championships as a part-time player.

For me personally, nothing ever changes. When I go out onto the pitch, I always want to win. All the other circumstances, whether we're favourites or underdogs, whether we're under pressure or not, doesn't make a big difference.

I always judge what gives me the most fun and not where a better, more expensive team is.

It's a great compliment to be compared to Michael Jackson, but people are starting to realize now that I'm just me, and that's all I want to to be.

I feel I'm fortunate compared with a lot of parents in being able to afford a nanny but, you know, it's expensive. When we've looked into trying to find a full daycare place in London it's just been impossible. You just cannot get one.

Certain people want to binge-watch stuff, and they want 10 solid hours of whatever, not realizing that writing 10 hours of quality television is a exhausting experience. Writing an hour and a half is a warm hug compared to writing 10 hours of television.

There is research on the effects of 9/11, and you know, compared to the enormity of it, it didn't have a huge effect on people's mood. They were going about their business, mostly.
