Quotations
The stand-up comedian Jasper Carrott once remarked of Hoddle:
- I hear Glenn Hoddle has found God. That must have been one hell of a pass.
Team-mate Ossie Ardiles stated: "He was like Maradona without pace. No, no. Glenn was God."
Another team-mate, John Margerrison, said of a young Hoddle: "Hoddle even then had extraordinary ability and it is a travesty that he didn't appear more in an England shirt. You build a team around a player of that calibre."

Famous quotes containing the word quotations:
“A book that furnishes no quotations is, me judice, no book—it is a plaything.”
—Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)
“Reading any collection of a man’s quotations is like eating the ingredients that go into a stew instead of cooking them together in the pot. You eat all the carrots, then all the potatoes, then the meat. You won’t go away hungry, but it’s not quite satisfying. Only a biography, or autobiography, gives you the hot meal.”
—Christopher Buckley, U.S. author. A review of three books of quotations from Newt Gingrich. “Newtie’s Greatest Hits,” The New York Times Book Review (March 12, 1995)
