The Champions League is the competition everyone wants to be in.
Steven Gerrard

The integral part of being a star is having the will to win. All the champions have it.
Betty Cuthbert

The mark of a great player is in his ability to come back. The great champions have all come back from defeat.
Sam Snead

The rules are changed now, there's not any way to build a team today. It's just how much money you want to spend. You could be the world champions and somebody else makes a key acquisition or two and you're through.
Whitey Herzog

The way to know about championship quality is to learn from champions, and that I did; studying them with professional purpose during my time in the ring and from habitual interest afterward.
Gene Tunney

They will sustain the constitution and laws and institutions of the United States, and be the champions of liberty and of that constitution when its integrity shall be threatened.
Lorenzo Snow

True champions aren't always the ones that win, but those with the most guts.
Mia Hamm

Venus told me the other day that champions don't get nervous in tight situations. That really helped me a lot. I decided I shouldn't get nervous and just do the best I can.
Serena Williams

We are the only class in history that has been left to fight its battles alone, unaided by the ruling powers. White labor and the freed black men had their champions, but where are ours?
Elizabeth Cady Stanton

We knew that you don't get to be world champions without a struggle.
Eric Cantona

We were the best team in the world: European champions in 1984, we qualified without a hitch and 86 was to be the swan song for a very experienced side.
Michel Patini

We've gotta give Richard Williams a lot of credit - to give us two number one champions is a phenomenal feat.
Tracy Austin

What America demands in her black champions is a brilliant, powerful body and a dull, bestial mind.
Eldridge Cleaver

When we got knocked out against Porto in the Champions League, I only slept two hours that night. I was not a nice person to be with after that match. I was struggling to get the result out of my system.
Ruud van Nistelrooy

You still remember the bad rounds here, but they don't stay with you as long. The Champions Tour is great, it's competitive and it's a wonderful show, but it's not the real big league. The real big league is the PGA Tour, and we all know that.
Tom Kite

You will never have great tennis champions from England because of the cold and dark, but most of all because people only care about the sport for two weeks a year, and then they're on to something else. There's just not a great love of the sport there.
