“There comes a time when you have to put forth the action and actually see whether you’re really just talking to promote yourself, just to sell yourself, or to build your confidence or build confidence around you… or are you the real deal?”

I’m looking forward to the fighting with no headgear – I’m jealous. I kind of want to go back to the Olympics to experience no headgear.

I didn’t even know about amateur boxing, period.

All my prayers go out to Tyson Fury. I know it’s difficult to be in his situation.

Going to Russia is going to be nothing for me. I’m going to treat it like it’s the U.S. because, at the end of the day, it’s one man, one ring.

I like to have fun in the ring, but I knock them out.

I can be a tennis player, a golf player, and even a soccer player.

I don’t play boxing.

The craziest thing about it, I used to hate fighting, but you had to show how tough you was; you had to show you wasn’t no punk.

I want to put my name in history. I love history.

I have so many things that I want to do with my life. I just don’t see myself being a fighter forever. Boxing is my love and passion. It also opens up and sets up other things in my life as well.

I can adapt to any environment or any situation I need to, so I am ready to go to Russia. You take what you get or start crying about it, but I am re-doing ‘Rocky IV.’ I am doing the black ‘Rocky.’

I could put everything I got in the bank on my abilities and skill and will, and what I’m capable of doing in the ring.

It’s a great feeling to be the WBC champ of the world, but there’s more to gain from this.

People who know me know that if I say I’m going to do something, I’m doing it. I am hungry. I am determined.

I want the people to be able to see me and be able to see a great performance.

I wanted to show the world what Deontay Wilder is all about. I’m a heavyweight, and I’m exciting.

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.

The damage we cause to the environment is a consequence of how we are within ourselves. If we realize that maintaining our inner climate is in our hands, we will understand that taking action for the environment is also in our hands.

What one has, one ought to use; and whatever he does, he should do with all his might.

Without knowledge action is useless and knowledge without action is futile.

Good actions are a guard against the blows of adversity.

Revolutionary action more often than not was a theatrical concession to the desires of violently discontented masses rather than an actual battle for power.

Stop saying those things that make you weak and ashamed. Say only those things that make you strong. Do only those things that you could speak of with honor.

Whatever you determine to be right, with diligence endeavour to perform.
