When you get as old as I am and no longer have a husband or dog, and the children have long since left home, you can sit and get a little wiser by thinking. Then it’s time to edit your memories and start looking at your life again. First come the regrets, then come the wrongs you’ve done, mistakes you’ve made – and all the things you can sit and brood over if you’re already in a bad mood. But you can also understand people and contexts in a new way.
My old, wise father once said: Freedom of speech is a right to write and speak, not a duty! But of course: Freedom of speech is by its nature unlimited, and it applies to everyone, even the stupid and provocative.
Age is not an obstacle. It is a limitation you impose on your mind.
…the image is one thing and the human being is another…it’s very hard to live up to an image.
Yes, the players showed an excellent attitude, but I am never satisfied when we are out on Lars Tyndskid’s field and then lose.
I have a small walk-in closet, and it can easily turn into a recycling museum, so I’ve also learned to sort out. When you are as old as I am, it is very important not to get sloppy and wear boring clothes.
There’s one thing worse than being boring. It is to be immoral

If we think that the way we live is good enough, then we’re completely wrong. You have to be able to doubt so that you can see that it can be done differently.
I’ve never worried about my color. I never had the black thing. If the whole world was like this, maybe there would be more harmony and love. Maybe it is. I don’t have a problem with being black in a white country or being with my people.
You can beat 40 scholars with one fact, but you cannot beat one idiot with 40 facts.
The more I practice – the luckier I am.
There are some who claim that football is a matter of life and death. It’s an attitude that disappoints me. I can assure you that football is much more than that!
I like Danish humour – I just wish you had more of it.
A good person, there can not be too much of.
I don’t think you should think too much about the fact that time is passing and you’re not a teenager anymore. Then you just get plagued and get even more wrinkles and look even more grumpy and sad.
Now they just have to stop coming up with all sorts of weird ideas. You do not know what the next thing they think we should do is. Whether we’re going to run through fire or something. I sat and thought a bit about an idea one could give to them. Maybe the day after tomorrow or in a few days, they will do a stage where we do not know when there are goals. They say it is between 1 cm. and 300 km. and then all of a sudden it’s some man with a flag – maybe a dwarf. And then the stage is over.
If you brake, you don’t win.
The one who comes first to the mill gets milled first
If you fail in your preparation, you might as well prepare to fail.
Bitter? No, it’s something we drink.
We must screw down the expectations. We have to change our tactics and play with long balls
There may be people with more talent than you, but there is no excuse not to work harder than you already do.
Physical strength in a woman – that’s what I am.
I’ve never gotten over what they call stagefright. I go through it every show. I’m pretty concerned, I’m pretty much thinking about the show. I never get completely comfortable with it, and I don’t let the people around me get comfortable with it, in that I remind them that it’s a new crowd out there, it’s a new audience, and they haven’t seen us before. So it’s got to be like the first time we go on.
