Utopia is on the horizon. I move two steps closer; it moves two steps further away. I walk another ten steps and the horizon runs ten steps further away. As much as I may walk, I'll never reach it. So what's the point of utopia? The point is this: to keep walking.

History never really says goodbye. History says, see you later.

There are visible and invisible dictators. The power structure of world football is monarchical. It's the most secret kingdom in the world.
