"I am Jose Mourinho and I don’t change. I arrive with all my qualities and my defects." ― Jose Mourinho Topic(s): Change More From Jose Mourinho "I was nine or 10 years old and my father was sacked on Christmas Day. He was a manager, the results had not been good, he lost a game on December 22 or 23. On Christmas Day, the telephone rang and he was sacked in the middle of our lunch." "Money does not guarantee success." "Facing the press is not easy, but because you have to go, you have to try to take a lot of positive things for yourself from these face-to-face meetings."

Everything began collapsing around me."― Marilyn Manson "But sports carried me away from being in a gang, or being associated with drugs. Sports was my way out."― LeBron James "I’d say that after my father passed my writing changed, it went deeper. Most would say ‘matured’ but I don’t think I’d use that word in relation to my progress. I think ‘change’ is a little more accurate."― Rick Springfield
