More quotes by Mike Tyson
As long as we persevere and endure, we can get anything we want.
Mike Tyson
Whatever you want, especially when you’re striving to be the best in the world at something, there’ll always be disappointments, and you can’t be emotionally tied to them, cos’ they’ll break your spirit.
Mike Tyson
I want to throw down your kid and stomp on his testicles, and then you will know what it is like to experience waking up everyday as me. And only then will you feel my pain.
Mike Tyson
I don't have to be that gentleman [baddest man on the planet] anymore. Now I have to be this guy. And in order to be this guy, I have to be smiling, I have to be gregarious, I have to be entertaining, and I have to be friendly. This is what my career needs now. I've adapted. But 20 years from now, I may need a different persona.
Mike Tyson
I'm not used to sensitivity any more. When I see people cry when I lose, save your tears. I don't know how to handle people crying any more. I lost my sensitivity like that. Please, you embarrass me when you cry because I don't know what to do when you cry. I don't know what to say.
Mike Tyson
I can inspire people on how to use money, how to get economically powerful.
Mike Tyson
I'm just a sucker even talking to you guys. I should be ready to rip your heads off your necks. But it's just not the right thing to do
Mike Tyson
Without discipline, no matter how good you are, you are nothing! One day, and I might not be around you're going to meet a tough guy who takes your best shot. He'll keep coming because he's tough. Don't get discouraged. That's when the discipline comes in.
Mike Tyson
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.
Mike Tyson
I got a imam, I got a rabbi, I got a priest, I got a reverend - I got 'em all. But I don't want to be holier-than-thou. I want to help everybody and still get some (sex).
Mike Tyson
I don't want to be grotesque, but when you're 330 pounds, it's hard to wipe your a-. You know?
Mike Tyson
I'm a good friend, but I'm a hell of an enemy. As your enemy, I want your demise. When I feel that in my heart it burns till I die.
Mike Tyson
I tried to stay away from King. You can't do it. It's like staying away from taxes. Sooner or later, he'll get you.
Mike Tyson
Fighting is spiritual. It appears to be physical from the layman's eyes. In my fights, I seemed to be angry and mad - all that stuff you saw me doing, the yelling and screaming and being mean in the ring - but I'm cool as a cucumber. I can hear everybody talking around me outside of the ring. I can see everybody. I know what is going on.
Mike Tyson
God lets everything happen for a reason. It's all a learning process, and you have to go from one level to another.
Mike Tyson
You can't stay married in a situation where you are afraid to go to sleep in case your wife might cut your throat.
Mike Tyson
Sometimes, the people we invest the most time in disappoint us the most.
Mike Tyson
Whatever my situation, I'm a strong disciplinarian I can do what I hate to do but do it like I love it.
Mike Tyson
People love you when you're successful, but if you're not, who really cares about you?
Mike Tyson
I like horror movies. Nightmare on Elm Street is my favourite. I even get scared a little bit watching horror.
