Mark Ruffalo at my college

Moderator: Last question: if the Avengers ran in the 2016 election, who would win? 

Mark Ruffalo: It would probably be…Scarlett Johansson, who deserves it. She’s smart, she’s tough, she’s a feminist - she knows how to control her anger. So I’d have to give it to her.

Cristiano Ronaldo: “My greatest fear is to die young.”

“(Off the pitch) I’m a normal person, I try to do normal things with my family, my friends, my son, to be as normal as possible. In the morning I always have training, so when I come back home I do other things I like.”

“There are a lot of things I like besides football, but if I should stick to only one, it’s playing with my son.”

“Year after year my objective is to try to always be the best, and training hard to push myself to the max in every moment. That’s what I always try to do. And in the last 8 or 10 years I think it has worked pretty well for me and so I try to continue like that.”

“The people I work together with, the people around me, they always motivate me to work hard and perform well. They give me good vibes and positive energy and that’s the most important thing for me.”

“My greatest fear is to die young, I don’t want to die young. I want to die an old man, at 80 or 90 years old.”

“Before entering the pitch I don’t think of anything special. I try to enjoy the moment. I like playing football and I want the fans to enjoy it as much as I do.”

Sporting Lisbon had this kid playing for them- a skinny, baby-faced 18-year-old with blonde highlights in his hair. He had everything: speed and athleticism, touch and vision. He danced over the ball, tormenting our defenders…the kid was sensational. [He] performed astonishing tricks with the ball, then shrugged, as if to say “Oh, that’s nothing.” It was a kind of look-at-me showmanship that bordered on arrogance, but it was impossible to take your eyes off him. Later, in the locker room, I heard my teammates rave. Ronaldo, they exclaimed. Cristiano Ronaldo.

Iker Casillas farewell Press Conference | July 12 , 2015 First of all, I want to thank all of you for being here in such a especial day. I have come to this great stadium to say good-bye to all of you and, more importantly, to all madridistas. Since yesterday, I am no longer a Real Madrid player, as I am set to join FC Porto. I have made this decision because of the great illusion that their president, staff and coach have expressed about my signing for them, and the great signs of affection I have received from their fans since the rumors came out. I hope I will not disappoint their fans and will be able to lift a big number of trophies with them.  I wish to speak to all madridistas now, after having spent twenty-five years in the biggest club in the world. It is a tough day for me, because I am saying good-bye to a great institution. It seems like yesterday, when I was nine years old, when I first wore Real Madrid T-shirt and made my dream come true. All this time I have suffered, laughed and cried to defend this club, but I have always felt supported by my partners and the fans. This club has made me what I am now, as it has helped me to grow with the principles of respect, fellowship and humility, and I have always tried to show them.  I want to pay a tribute to all my partners, whom I have lived unique moments with, as we have grown to be great friends, even family. Also to all my coaches and their staffs, since all of them have taught me valuable things and have given me great advice, and also for their friendship, their experience and their professionalism. I also wish to thank Real Madrid staff, as they are an essential part of what we do every day, my parents and my family, who have always supported me, and my wife and son who will always come with me and give me their unconditional support.  Finally, I want to thank all madridistas all around the world, those who have embraced me as their captain in the last five years. I have always said that I want to be reminded not only as a good or bad goalkeeper, but, more importantly, as a good person. I want to thank all of you for your support and tell you that I will never forget you. Wherever I go, I will keep shouting “¡Hala Madrid
