“When you are playing with good players, it doesn't matter if they are Argentinian, German, Welsh or whatever. Good players can join in and understand their team-mates on the pitch. In most of our games, you can't hear what the other lads are saying anyway, because of the noise of the crowd. I'm sure Shunsuke will want to learn English so he can enjoy the other lads' company, but there are so many Japanese people here watching him that he isn't going to be lonely.”
John Hartson
“He's back in the side, he's obviously played well enough and is good enough to be in the Welsh 22, so if he comes on he will be treated exactly the same as any other Welsh player.”
Brian O'Driscoll
“Names are not always what they seem. The common Welsh name BZJXXLLWCP is pronounced Jackson.”
Mark Twain
“God defend me from that Welsh fairy,Lest he transform me to a piece of cheese!”
William Shakespeare
“The Welsh are all actors. It's only the bad ones who become professional”
Richard Burton
“After Zorro, people spoke Spanish to me for ages. I'm Welsh but that movie instantly gave me a new ethnicity.”
Catherine Zeta Jones
“Now I perceive the devil understands Welsh.”
