Brazil go into every World Cup expecting to win - so when it is in Brazil, it is expected even more. You can't understand what the World Cup means to our country. Not just the fans and players, but everybody in Brazil lets us know that they expect it. Our president, people in politics, all tell us to come back with the World Cup.

Ronaldinho

It's unbelievable: the fans of Manchester United are one of the best in the world, and I feel the support of them.

David de Gea

You see it for the men's World Cup, fans traveling everywhere to come support their teams.

Lindsey Horan

Most of our music is about how we perceive the world and how we try to persist as normal, average human beings. So our fans inspire us and give us a direction to go as musicians. And of course, their love and support keeps us going.

All the records are the results of our fans, BLINKs, and their unconditional support. Every day we try to acknowledge how grateful we are, but more than the pressure, we are ready to give them back as much as they gave us.

Back in 2005, we lost in the semi-final of the World Cup and that was a great learning curve for the team. It gave us a goal and even more of a hunger to win the World Cup, so we went away and set ourselves a long-term plan to do it.

Isa Guha

Our fans make the band. What they give we give right back. They're an integral part of us. They ARE us.

Jonathan Davis

When the media began reporting that I might return, I was touched by the response from so many fans who wanted to see me back in the sport. That was certainly a factor in the decision, so I'd like to thank the fans for their support. But, at the end of the day, when I received the call it was an offer I couldn't refuse. It was Williams!

Felipe Massa

I think there are hardships with anything you do. And for us, we have our fans, who give us so much love and support. So, that helps us push forth with whatever we are doing, and it will continue to do that in the future.

Jisoo

It's unfair because the people booing, I believe, wouldn't want to have their child booed. Fans don't understand our lives and what we go through. They don't look at us as humans. We love the fans because they support and love the game, but at the same time it hurts when they turn their back on us.

Allen Iverson

Somebody asked me what I wanted to do. I just said I wanted to…just to give back to it what it’s given me. And to meet all the other people that are doing it…just to be in the world, really.

Jeff Buckley

The shot of Kapil Dev kissing the World Cup and hordes of Indian fans all over at Lord's is etched in my memory. Every Indian is proud of that victory, and every Indian player who has played the World Cup after that '83 win wants to bring the Cup home.

Suresh Raina

This is something I've wanted to do my whole life, to play in a World Cup, to play in a World Cup final and win the World Cup.

Lindsey Horan

It's definitely cool to have fans around the world give their support.

Alex Bregman

I feel like I took opportunities that were given to me to get where I needed to be, but it's not necessarily what I wanted to give back to the world or how I want to inspire people.
