It's wonderful to be back. Back among the mountains that remind us of our vulnerability, our ultimate lack of control over the world we live in. Mountains that demand humility, and yield so much peace in return.
Earth, mountains, rivers, hidden in this nothingness. In this nothingness, earth, mountains, rivers revealed. Spring flowers, winter snows. There's no being or non-being, nor denial itself.
One night with an ugly woman and one day in the mountains both are like an eternity.
You just don't heal that easy unless you're young.
There'll never be a 'Rocky IV.' You gotta call a halt.
I have been in there with all of them and there is nothing left for me to prove.
My main goal was to win all the belts, and I have done that.
I've worked hard and accomplished what I've accomplished in the heavyweight scene.
I still am champion in my own right.
I got hit a lot. I'm glad I lived through it.
I have always believed that you win fights round by round.
I am young, but I have been through a lot.
Everything in our family was always boxing. It was the life my father chose for me.
I need to travel, of course, with my laptop, so I can do my business on the road.
There's enough pressure in life without seeking competition. That makes it double pressure.
I like to control my own personal life.
I am just working on staying alive.
I'm not really a cutter-off sort of person. I'll chat to anybody.
In the end, you have to protect yourself at all times.
Everything people say I couldn't do I've done.
Self-preservation is an important thing to me.
