Pele — "The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time…"

"Once, in a match in Senegal, the goalkeeper cried so much after I scored that he had to be substituted! He had lost a big bet!"

"I don't have any regrets. I have lived a wonderful life."

"If I were to say now that I had never been aware of it, that would be a lie. There was a lot we never got to find out, but there were many stories too."

"I only ask you this question because I talked with Branco and you were a good friend of Careca, of Alemão, because you played together in Naples. And I said, Maradona isn't a good friend of yours, how…"

"I have scored more than 1,000 goals, and I have won three World Cups. But the most important thing is that I have given joy to the people."
