Famous quotes by Ian Rush:

"Moving from Wales to Italy is like moving to a different country."

"And the things that we fear are a weapon to be held against us"

"I couldn't settle in Italy - it was like living in a foreign country."

"And the things that we fear are a weapon to be held against us."

"I think great players can play in any year, that's why they're great. A lot of it is down to the mental approach."

"You can enjoy yourself, but you need to look after yourself as well."

"You've got to have a dream... if you don't have any big dreams, nothing happens."

"In India, kids need someone to look up to. They've got it in cricket: they have Tendulkar and others."

"I was so shy when I was younger. When I first went to Liverpool I didn't say a word for a year."

"It's different from Liverpool. Boston seems to be a friendly place."

"The only thing I can cook is Welsh rarebit."

"Even all the top players going to Europe to play helps soccer in America, as do all the MLS players like Beckham and all that, they're trying to promote it. At the end of the day it's about getting the younger generation interested at an early age so most of them will move on and play."

"I just wanted to play as long as I could. When you stop playing, you're not going to get it back. When you don't enjoy it, that's the time to pack it in."

"Mainly it's the parents who remember me. But the kids today, what they do is go and Google you. A lot of them turn up and they know everything about me. They say: 'You scored 346 goals' or 'You wore the No9 shirt for Liverpool.'"

"I love horse racing, I play golf, and I love travelling."

"I realised I'd been spoiled at Liverpool. We were used to winning. In Italy I grew up as a person. I didn't enjoy the football, mind. It was very defensive, but I became a better player because of the work I had to do around the box. Off the pitch, I learned about what to eat and what to drink to be successful, and I learned about life."

"I've got tremendous respect for different cultures, for the food and everything."

"I've got a place in Portugal, which I like very much, but I've just been working in Malaysia for five weeks. My family had a chance to come over and we really loved it, particularly the island of Pangkor."

"I've done my coaching badges, I've got my Pro Licence, but I enjoy what I'm doing now. I'm also the elite performance director of the Welsh FA. The main thing for me was always Liverpool Football Club and my country, Wales - and I'm lucky enough to still be involved with both of them."

"There are a lot of famous comedians from Liverpool, then obviously the Beatles, and the football club. That's what people in Liverpool are passionate about."

it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why
why i feel what i feel inside
how i try to express
whats been troublin' my mind
but still i cant find the words
but i know that somethings got a hold of me
it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why
why i feel what i feel inside
baby someday ill find a way to say
just what you mean to me
but if that day never comes along
and you dont hear this song
i guess you'll never know
it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why
why i feel what i feel in
feel what i feel inside
and when i say inside i mean deep
you fill my soul
and thats something i cant explain
its over me
cuz it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why
why i feel what i feel inside
it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why
why i feel what i feel inside
it came over me in a rush
when i realized that i love you so much
that sometimes i cry
but i cant tell you why

take this down and make sure that
you remember that what you think
what appears is not always the case
still you're talking shit all for no reason
you try competing with the words i speak
i feel the tension
you're blown away
i'm taking you down
options are still in reach
there's no peace in this discomfort
don't know why i fell so hard
now all your opinions are going sour
such strong opinions but not your own...
and just when things started going for me
i don't need this, still receive it
and now you're talking shit
and it blows me away
don't talk any more and it's making me think
more than i want to settle the score
what is it for, it sets you back

When I reach the end of this lonesome road
I know that you will be there
though I sit and watch the setting sun
and the world grows quiet and still
then the stars come shining
one by one
I will have seen your love and mercy
