If you actually dissect the lyrics in 'Motley Crue', you'll notice that there's a lot going on beneath the surface.

If you leave me in a room long enough, I'll redecorate the room.

I love those Keith Richards solo records, but it's not the Rolling Stones.

I remember Iggy and the Stooges' song 'Search and Destroy' reaching out from my speakers to me like my own personal anthem.

If I'm watching my favorite boxer, and he's just won the heavyweight championship of the world, and he retires, it kind of makes the guy a legend.

Do I think anything I ever do will be as big as Motley Crue? It's impossible.

Ego is the great enemy. Ego will hold you back every single time.

It's just kind of known in the music industry that a farewell tour means 'for now.'

Let's just say I have expensive taste.

We each have our own tour bus. We've never done that before.

Empathy is important, openness, honesty, and an understanding for others.

It's all about togetherness and to pay the other the necessary respect. If you do that, then we all would feel better. It is not always a taking but also a giving in both directions.

Life writes the best stories.

We want to chase and seal the championship title. The decisive thing is to be at the top at the end of the season.

We want to win all of our matches and focus on ourselves.

In the emotion, you say things that you regret the next day.

You have seen it: You can put something into the world, and all of a sudden, everybody believes that. Like throwing a fishing rod and the fish bite into.

Mentality beats quality.

There is only one Messi. No matter what I say, it's too little. You have to shower him with superlatives.

If teams play Bayern, they bring another attitude to the pitch than if they play teams who are not Bayern.

I am an optimist, not a dreamer.

Fitness gives you confidence, and if you're fit, you don't have to wonder whether you'll last the 90 minutes.

For the top stars, it's just more appealing to go to the Premier League than to Bundesliga.

A five-year contract is worth no more than a six-month contract these days; it's very concerning.

If research can help us discover cures for diseases, it surely can improve a football team. Whether it's data analysis or biomechanics, it can give you an edge - and I'd be a fool if I didn't want that edge.

For the players, these top, top, top games or these top, top, top events - like a World Cup or a European Championship - are not common but, of course, something special.

I don't underestimate any opponent.

Expectations run immensely high in Croatia. We may only be a small country, but people expect us to be our best at every major tournament.

You build up the opponent, and you lose confidence.

I'm a realist.

I prefer the 4-2-3-1 formation and stick to it but have my own interpretations.

Just because a coach does not get out the clubs after a match but instead focuses on what he says, that's not an indicator of cluelessness.

The words 'give up,' 'raise the white flag' do not exist in my vocabulary.

Those who know me know I'm always a fighter.

Everyone has their own taste, and you can argue about taste.

I don't need players who won't track back, and I'm certainly not keen on specialists.

Every player at Bayern Munich wants to play and should play - they all have good reasons.

Attacking is the tough part in football; defending is relatively easy.

If the family sticks together, things are easy. If not, it will fall apart. There are several examples in history. Take Troy or take Caesar.

A coach should not stir up headlines after a match.

Giving up is the first way to fail. It does not exist for me.

I question everything I do.

I'm a firm believer in science.

Of course, the attacking players get the attention because they score the goals, score nice goals, and those are the moments that remain in memory. But I wish that other players who are not in the foreground, who still perform well for their club or association, get more recognition.

Spending big money does not mean you win all the silverware.

That's the way people are in general: they see everything negatively at first and then choose to ask questions.

You can't manage every footballer the same. Of course you'd love to, but it doesn't work like that. We're not robots.

Real Madrid without Cristiano Ronaldo are, of course, not what they were with Ronaldo, but they're still a very good team.

I've always been someone who said that football is a contact sport.

Football provides the most beautiful stories.
