I still have a video of my father, which I watch before every game I play for Brazil. It gives me strength, makes me determined.

I helped Messi and I know he will do the same with Neymar.

Paolo Maldini and John Terry are two of the toughest men I have met on the field.

I have never imagined doing anything other than football, but now, thinking about it coldly, if I hadn't been a footballer, I would have been a musician.

When I got to the senior national team, there was another Ronaldo, so they started calling me Ronaldinho because I was younger.

Football is a great love because I was born into a family of players and therefore born into football. I'm fortunate to have a style of play that a lot of people like. It's a privilege to be able to do what I like best and in my own way, but I'm fortunate that people like it, and that motivates me even more.

I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them.
