“I’m a boxer who believes that the object of the sport is to hit and not get hit.”

Things happen for a reason, and the only thing you can do is at night time get on your knees and ask God for forgiveness for anything that you did that you didn’t feel was right.

I’m not here to judge Mike Tyson. I’m not here to judge nobody. I’m not here to monitor no other fighters. I respect him for what he did in the sport of boxing. He was an entertainer.

I was able to retire from the sport with all my faculties and not let the sport retire me.

You have good days, you have bad days. But the main thing is to grow mentally.

I’m a man of my word.

A true champion can adapt to anything.

I always put my boxing first.

You could take me anywhere. You could take me to the moon, and believe me, everybody’s going to try to take a trip to the moon to watch me fight.

You’ve got to have a villain and they’ll always make me a villain. I’m used to it – it makes me work harder and it makes me fight harder.

When you’re the best, you only want to surround yourself with the best.

There’s ups and downs with boxing, layoffs are part of the sport and they can either help or hurt a guy.

I think I already proved that I wasn’t just fighting for the money, because I fought as an amateur. I fought 90 fights for free.

I push myself to the limit.

I turned pro as a 20-year-old, won a world title a year later, and remained a world champion ever since.

I’ll back up anything my dad says.

Every home that I have is paid for, every car that I have is paid for, and I am a hundred-million-dollar man. I mean, this is the truth; it’s not a lie.

There’s not an awful lot that embarrasses me. I’m the kind of actress that absolutely believes in exposing myself.

Believe you can, and you can. Belief is one of the most powerful of all problem dissolvers. When you believe that a difficulty can be overcome, you are more than halfway to victory over it already.

Anybody who believes that the earth is less than 10,000 years old needs psychiatric help.

I strongly believe in the separation of church and state. But freedom of religion does not mean freedom from religion, there is a better way.

Make sure you continue to trust what you know now about yourself and stay true to what you believe in.

The dollar bill is God in the States. All those Pelican people just believe in money and nothing else.

I’d be dishonoring God if I didn’t believe I was put here on Earth to help change the world.

It is necessary to believe that the mixture of evil has produced the greatest possible good: otherwise the evil would not have been permitted.
