Here are a few quotes of Liverpool legend, Bill Shankly on his 100th birthday  today. 


"For a player to be good enough to play for Liverpool, he must be prepared 

to run through a brick wall for me then come out fighting on the other side."



On one of Liverpool's European trips, he was filling in the hotel registration form
where he wrote Football for occupation and Anfield for the address.

"Sir, said the receptionist, you need to fill in where you live.
"Lady", he replied, "in Liverpool there is only one address that matters and that is where I live."


"Of course I didn't take my wife to see Rochdale as an anniversary present.
It was her birthday. Would I have got married in the football season? Anyway,
it was Rochdale reserves."


"Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very
disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more
important than that."


At Dixie Dean's funeral:

"I know this is a sad occasion but I think that Dixie
would be amazed to know that even in death he could draw
a bigger crowd than Everton can on a Saturday Afternoon."
