It's a setback but not a disaster. There's a lot more football to be played. Glenn Hoddle, England coach, after defeat to Italy.

When I took the job there were some people who talked about me as being a bread and salami manager, a very basic coach. But now I ask them just what kind of bread and salami they saw at Wembley on Wednesday night? Cesare Maldini, Italy's coach.

No victories are hollow. The only thing that counts in boxing is winning. Frank Maloney, Lennox Lewis's manager after the fight with Oliver McCall.

When he [McCall] started walking away I thought it was a joke at first. I thought he was trying to fool me so he could sucker-punch me. Lennox Lewis.
