Defeat Is Not Worth Thinking About.

When I Go Home Every Night, I Can Look In The Mirror And Say I Have Given 110 Per Cent For Newcastle United. If People Aren't Happy With That, I Can't Give Any More.

I Didn't Watch Cartoons, I Was Too Busy Playing Football.

I Don't Know What I'd Have Become If I Hadn't Been A Footballer; I Wrote Down 'dustbin Man' On A Careers Questionnaire At School Till My Dad Made Me Change It To 'joiner'.

If People Are Going To Write Bad Things About Me Because It Makes News, I Can Brush It Aside Because I've Had This For 10 Years. I'm Big Enough And Strong Enough To Cope With It. It's What Comes With Being Alan Shearer.

Sometimes Going In For A Hard Tackle Generates A Louder Cheer Than A Great Pass.
