Don King
I dare to be great. The man without imagination stands unhurt and hath no wings. This is my credo, this is my forte.

There's only one rule anyone connected with boxing must keep in mind - everything you here in boxing is a lie.
Don King
She's (Christy Martin) voluptuous and intoxicating no smear lipstick. Here's a woman who pounds it out and her lipstick don't smear. Revlon should jump on that like white on rice, you know what I mean? Max Factor, Elizabeth Arden.
Don King
I will fight for America till the day I drop.
Don King
People are my most important asset. Faith in the supreme being, trust, credibility and performance are the things that have brought me to the top.
Don King
They went down the list of every known charge conceivable to man - rackeering, skimming, kickback, ticket scalping. fixing fights, preordaining fights, vitaiting officials, corrupting judges, all the way down to laundering money. Everything but the Lindbergh baby.
Don King
You go for the quality of the performance, not the longevity of it.
Don King
Mike Tyson was one of the most terrific athletes I've ever met.
Don King
You sign an agreement you make a contract, you live up to it. You never get what you deserve. You get what you negotiate. You got a right to say yay or nay.
