I'm like any Brazilian: I like to go out and enjoy myself.
When things are really good, really easy it's not cool for me.
When I was born, the man in the sky pointed to me and said, 'That's the guy.'
I like to say it like it is.
When I sleep to much I don't score. That's the reason I like to go out a lot.
Officially I'm not playing any more. I've stopped. My time is up. Everything has been a lot of fun.
I'm happy because I won't have to train again, or travel or sit in team hotels.
I'm inspired by challenges. My life was always like this.
I have scored against every team, every country, every defender in the world.
I have my way of doing things.
I'll never forget my friends and where I came from.
Will I become a coach in the future? No way. I'd never be able to put up with someone like me.
I am not happy to play for Barcelona, but Barcelona should be happy that I play there.
God created me to delight people with my goals.
