Famous quotes by Phil Knight:

"They have done great things within what you would call established American sports. Freddy has the potential to bring soccer almost for the first time into the public's consciousness. Soccer in the United States isn't really part of the culture. What it needs, I think, is a superhero, and he clearly could be it. Now, that's putting a lot of pressure on him, but the kid's got all the potential to do that."

"I am pleased with the strides we've made in our global equipment business where revenues grew 41 percent this past quarter and 37 percent year-to-date, ... The strong dollar continues to negatively impact our European results; constant dollar revenues in Europe were up 23 percent in the second quarter."

"We are committed to improving working conditions for the 500,000 people who make our products,"

"The slower growth in revenues and continued pressure on margins will result in negative earnings comparison for at least the next two quarters, with fiscal 1998 earnings per share likely to be in the $2 to $2.15 range,"

"I believe that continued strong consumer acceptance of our products at retail and the strengthening of our organization will enable us to manage through the challenges in our U.S. footwear business and lay the foundation for another round of growth,"

"why does a 67-year-old guy who got his start running an athletic shoe company… think he can enter a field famous for gobbling up fortunes?"

"I have a market."

"Sports is like rock 'n' roll. Both are dominant cultural forces, both speak an international language, and both are all about emotions."

"Ultimately, we wanted Nike to be the world's best sports and fitness company. Once you say that, you have a focus. You don't end up making wing tips or sponsoring the next Rolling Stones world tour."

"I was very aware of shoes when I was running track. The American shoes were offshoots of tire companies. Shoes cost $5, and you would come back from a 5-mile run with your feet bleeding."

"We could see that he was a charismatic guy who jumps over the moon and is very competitive, but nobody could have predicted what he would become to our culture."

"Up until the time I was 14 years old, I was sure that I was going to be a big-league baseball player. But that dream came to a rude awakening when I got cut from my high school baseball team."

"You can't explain much in 60 seconds, but when you show Michael Jordan, you don't have to. It's that simple."

"Meeting sports athletes that are the best in the world is a thrill to this day."

"I'm Phil Knight, and I don't believe in advertising."

"At first, we couldn't be establishment, because we didn't have any money. We were guerrilla marketers, and we still are, a little bit. But, as we became No. 1 in our industry, we've had to modify our culture and become a bit more planned."

"I still get real nervous when I go in front of more than two people."

"I don't consider myself enigmatic, but I don't spend a lot of time thinking about my public persona."
