We all have to control our feelings. That's the thing that separates us from animals.

Everybody in boxing probably makes out well except for the fighter.

There are nine million people who see me in the ring and hate my guts. Most of them are white. That's okay. Just spell my name right.

I hate to cry and I hate to sound like sour grapes, but no one ever listens to me. No one ever hears what I have to say.

I was in handcuffs. I was under arrest. I remember there was this old lady looking at me, and I could tell she felt real sorry for me, and she did'nt know but all I wanted to do was take her purse.

What I've done in the past is history and what I'm gonna do in the future is a mystery

I'm a nut case, but that is what I believe.
