It's good to know how to read, but it's dangerous to know how to read and not how to interpret what you're reading.

When I fight someone, I want to break his will. I want to take his manhood. I want to rip out his heart and show it to him.

I'm going to gut you like a fish.

I know I'm going to blow one day. My life is doomed the way it is. I have no future.

The drug dealers, they sympathize with me. They see me as some sort of pathetic character.

I don't react to a tragic happening any more. I took so many bad things as a kid and some people think I don't care about anything. It's just too hard for me to get emotional. I can't cry no more.

I have the same malice in my heart as far as the fight game is concerned, but outside the ring, I won't say anything a dignified man won't say.

When Jesus comes back, these crazy, greedy, capitalistic men are gonna kill him again.

I don't understand why people would want to get rid of pigeons. They don't bother no one.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

I feel bad about my outlook, how I feel about people and society, and that I'll never be part of society the way I should.

I'm a dreamer. I have to dream and reach for the stars, and if I miss a star then I grab a handful of clouds.

I can inspire people on how to use money, how to get economically powerful.

I could feel his muscle tissues collapse under my force. It's ludicrous these mortals even attempt to enter my realm.

I'm a Muslim, but I think Jesus would have a drink with me. He would be cool. He would talk to me.

Some people try to get you out of slavery for you to be their slave.

Real freedom is having nothing. I was freer when I didn't have a cent.

I think I'll take a bath in his blood.

Anyone with a grain of sense would know that if I punched my wife I would rip her head off. It's all lies. I have never laid a finger on her.

The only thing I do is just pray for inspiration, for a way of thinking, because I don't have any particular goal in sight.

I just want to do what I do best, and that's fight. I love it.

I'm not much for talking. You know what I do. I put guys in body bags when I'm right.

I'm the biggest fighter in the history of the sport. If you don't believe it, check the cash register.

I'm just like you. I enjoy the forbidden fruits in life, too.

You come home, and you party. But after that, you get a hangover. Everything about that is negative.

That's what people respect, the fact that I wasn't a chump that laid on his back and gave up.

My biggest weakness is my sensitivity. I am too sensitive a person.

If Jesus was here, do you think Jesus would show me any love? Do you think Jesus would love me?

As long as we persevere and endure, we can get anything we want.

I did my time for the rape. I paid my money to Las Vegas. I paid my dues.

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

I'm a historian, and that freaks me out.

One day some guy is going to get a billion-dollar fight.

You can't stay married in a situation where you are afraid to go to sleep in case your wife might cut your throat.

I've lived places these guys can't defecate in.

I'm just happy I'm not a phony.

I'm not Mother Teresa, but I'm not Charles Manson, either.

That equals to being a fool, having fame and no fortune. A lot of guys out there have fame doing this and doing that, but they are broke.

I just look around and say, I'm a mess. I don't know why I do things.

I try to catch them right on the tip of his nose, because I try to punch the bone into the brain.

I know why they don't like me because they want the money I have.

Quayle said the worst thing that happened to him was that he never trusted his own judgment. I said from now on I am going to go with my own judgment.

I ain't the same person I was when I bit that guy's ear off.

I want to rip out his heart and feed it to Lennox Lewis. I want to kill people. I want to rip their stomachs out and eat their children.

I intend to fight and I want to win. But my priorities are basically to be a good Brother and a strong one, and to try to be a good father one day.

I'm in trouble because I'm normal and slightly arrogant. A lot of people don't like themselves and I happen to be totally in love with myself.

I love to hit people. I love to.

People are going to say what they say. I know sometimes I say things; I offend people.

Mr. Arthur Ashe, he was good. I read some of his books. He knew about everything, but he was real quiet and didn't talk much. I never met him.
