I appreciate every guy, whether he is a footballer or a cook.

There is Messi, and then the rest.

I am dreaming of winning the treble again. I will never forget how I felt after winning it in 2012-13. It was like we were flying. It's a great feeling, it's utter madness. I definitely want to have that feeling again at some stage of my career.

The 4-1-4-1 system is weird.

I've experienced so many emotions with Bayern.

The Bayern jersey means so much to me.

I like to create a good atmosphere in the dressing room.

The Ballon d'Or doesn't interest me any more.

I have to train in order to be happy.

Bayern will always have a place in my heart and what I need, I can accomplish here.

I feel very comfortable in Munich and my family is doing well.

I'm not afraid of anything.

Guardiola knows that the little details that can make us better. He analyses the game instantly - that's his biggest strength, his best characteristic.

Ronaldo certainly scores goals, but I do too. He certainly scores more than I do, but we don't have the same style.

Everyone knows that I had a lot of good coaches but one person was very important: Jupp Heynckes.

My relationship with the fans has always been incredible.

He does great things on the pitch but the coach Van Gaal was a bad man.

For me, Munich is more than just a second home. I can imagine staying forever.

I think everyone knows I'm better on the left side.

I never said I wanted to move to Real Madrid. If I did, I would have said so publicly.

In truth, there is nobody who will be able to play like Zidane.

We have chased away the clouds, the sky is all 'rose.'

I bow down in memory of the victims, and I come to tell my Armenian friends that we will never forget the tragedies that your people has endured.

Long live the Republic, and long live France.

I am not deaf. I hear the anger. I see the dissatisfaction, and I have to go faster.

Nothing was given to me, nothing was entrusted to me, nothing was assigned to me. Everything I have, I took by right.

The fight against global warming is a humanitarian issue - how the planet can be preserved - and it is also an issue of considerable economic importance, of what we call green growth.

I am for a clear distinction between public and private life. I believe private matters should be regulated in private and I have asked those close to me to respect this.

I attach the greatest importance to an amplification of the peace efforts in the Middle East. I would also like to see a greater dialogue between the U.S. and the EU.

During a term in office there are highs and lows, but what counts is that the goal is set as well as the means to achieve it, and the force we put into getting results.

In an election, one needs both hope and audacity.

I do not like the rich.

Make no mistake: we will win, and groups like ISIL will lose.

My mission is to put France back on its feet. The priority is employment. Efforts have to be made, but those efforts must be made fairly.

The extremists wanted to divide France; it came together.

I think that France has not made it clear enough recently to our German friends how important it is to introduce euro bonds as a tool against speculation. And how the necessary budget discipline needs to be accompanied by growth.

When I took part in European leaders summits, it was sometimes unpleasant for me to hear Romanian, Polish, Portuguese, and Italian friends speak English, although I admit that on an informal basis, first contacts can be made in this language. Nevertheless, I will defend everywhere the use of the French language.

My adversary is the world of finance.

If there is not a united policy, this mechanism will not work: it will collapse, and it will... undoubtedly be the end of Schengen, the return of national borders.

Everyone says Francois Mitterrand had huge charisma. But before he was president they used to call him badly dressed, old, archaic and say he knew nothing about the economy... until the day he was elected. It's called universal suffrage. When you're elected, you become the person that embodies France.

Our only goal is to strengthen the opposition and to avoid the dilemma whereby we only have the choice between Bashar Assad and al-Qaeda.

The transatlantic relationship is vital for both our countries: France will remain a reliable ally of the United States. Nevertheless, ally does not mean aligned.

Europe needs an engine, and the Franco-German motor has provided that when the two nations have converged on important topics during critical periods. But that partnership shouldn't be a directorate for other EU members.

The partnerships between Schmidt and Giscard, Kohl and Mitterrand, and even between Chirac and Schroeder, have proved that political differences do not mean that we cannot work together.

I perfectly understood President Obama's attitude throughout the French presidential campaign. He had no reason to distance himself from Nicolas Sarkozy. It's the basic solidarity that leaders who worked together owe to each other.

I hope Britain stays in the European Union, but I don't want to decide for the British.

It is intolerable that in our country citizens should feel so upset and under assault because of their religious choice that they would conclude that they have to hide.

If Europe does not advance, it will fall or even be wiped out from the world map... My duty is to bring Europe out of its lethargy.

I don't want to drive the markets crazy. I don't want to create trouble, but rather order and rules and norms. We have to struggle against financial excesses, those who speculate with sovereign debt, those who develop financial products which have done so much harm.

My obligation, if I become president, is to give another direction to Europe than the one that is being forced upon us today.
