Swearing's my release, and the one weapon I have to defend myself against destiny when it elects to strike without pity.

More quotes by Andrea Pirlo

For me, it's always better to keep chasing down the guy in front and maybe finish second, rather than stopping altogether.

I like to think of myself as a director, on the pitch and in life

I perceive the game in a different way. It's a question of viewpoints, of having a wide field of vision. Being able to see the bigger picture.

I strike dead balls alla Pirlo. Each shot bears my name and they're all my children.

Being part of a team that belongs to everyone makes me feel good and at peace with myself. A lot of the time, it's better than sex: it lasts longer and if it all falls flat, it can't just be your fault.
