“I got three whippings a day from my mama.”

As far as working out, I know exactly what I’m doing.

Every time someone starts talking about weight, it takes away from the fight. No one is born at that weight. We grew into that weight. It is all about the challenge, more so than the weight.

When you do not change up a lot, people may know you a lot better than they should.

The word of God steadies me. He says your trials and tribulations make you who you are. So you can see my whole story in the way I endured and overcame some testing experiences.

When at a young age you learn to face your fears, that makes the difference between people being champions and people not being champions.

I’ve had a great life following my faith and my instincts.

A champion shows who he is by what he does.

I think my whole living in vain involves me. I know that the biggest help for me is to help someone else in so many different ways.

The game’s been good to me and I hope I’ve been good to the game. I’m 50 years old and I’ve pretty much did everything that I wanted to do in boxing.

Either I believe I can be the best heavyweight fighter in the world and beat everyone, or I will not. I feel I can beat everyone as a heavyweight.

When you have a sound mind, you can do what’s necessary.

Pressure bursts pipes. I thank God for giving me peace of mind to overcome pressure. The difference between winning and losing is when pressure hits.

I probably do better not being in politics. They have too much control over you when you are in politics.

A champion shows who he is by what he does when he’s tested. When a person gets up and says ‘I can still do it’, he’s a champion.

The most important thing about being a father is being able to forgive yourself. If you don’t forgive yourself, you’re not going to forgive your kids, either.

It is not the size of a man but the size of his heart that matters.

Because every day of your life was written on God’s calendar before you were born, everything that happens to you has spiritual significance.

Whatever happens, the flame of the French resistance must not be extinguished and will not be extinguished. Tomorrow, as today, I will speak on Radio London.

How you start your day is how you live your day. How you live your day is how you live your life.

Each day is a new opportunity. Yesterday is over and done. Today is the first day of my future.

We never remember days, only moments.

At the end of the day, I just do my job. I love my art.

Glorify who you are today, do not condemn who you were yesterday, and dream of who you can be tomorrow.

I’m really big on day dates. If you go for a stroll, have a picnic or lunch with a glass of wine – it doesn’t get better than that.
