I didn't come here to be average.

My advice is find fuel in failure. Sometimes failure gets you closer to where you want to be.

I realize that I'm black, but I like to be viewed as a person, and this is everybody's wish.

The minute you get away from fundamentals – whether its proper technique, work ethic or mental preparation – the bottom can fall out of your game, your schoolwork, your job, whatever you’re doing.

Limits, like fear, is often an illusion.

Sometimes you need to get hit in the head to realize that you're in a fight.

You have competition every day because you set such high standards for yourself that you have to go out every day and live up to that.
