I spend so much money on food, just getting the food for me is a tremendous expense, so there's no way I could even think about paying for supplements. I think of all supplements as food derivative anyway, so If I can only choose between getting the food or the supplements I'd rather opt for the food.

The mind is everything. If you don’t believe you can do something then you can’t. If you believe that your upbringing was substandard and therefore you have to walk around as a refugee from that crisis situation for the rest of your life, forever bearing the burden of that experience then that will be YOUR life.

For me I'm natural not because somebody else believes I'm natural, I'm natural because I don't use steroids, I don't use growth hormone, I don't use any of those enhancers. I'm natural in my own right because I don't do that and not because other people accept the fact that I'm natural or not.

I feel for food more than I could crave a woman. And that's the truth!

Bodybuilding is my craft and because it is my craft it dictates how I live. Because it dictates how I live it's not just what I do in the gym but it's also an accepted lifestyle.

I'll never be a weightlifter.

I am a believer, I am believer that we shape and create the life that we choose, and I believe that the tool that we have to do that, is our mind.
