More quotes by Mike Tyson
I could never stop drugs, I could never stop drinking, until I received my spiritual awakening.
Mike Tyson
This white woman came up to me, and I'm thinking, WOW. When I was a kid, she would have been robbed and raped and left for dead. This is a real strange scenario, and I just wanted to cry. I'm like, Who am I? Where's my heritage?
Mike Tyson
I'm a historian, and that freaks me out.
Mike Tyson
I sacrifice so much of my life, can I at least get laid?
Mike Tyson
I'm not afraid to be a jerk or anything and laugh at myself anymore.

Mike Tyson
I am the most ruthless, brutal champion ever. There is no one who can match me. I want your heart. I want to eat your children.
Mike Tyson
The drug dealers, they sympathize with me. They see me as some sort of pathetic character.
Mike Tyson
I'am not predictor of fights, but I know when I hit 'em good, the fight is close to an end
Mike Tyson
I can inspire people on how to use money, how to get economically powerful.
Mike Tyson
If he's not dead, it doesn't count.
Mike Tyson
I'm a bad guy. But if I was a good guy, nobody would want to pay to see me fight.
Mike Tyson
It's just what I'm born to do, I'm born to entertain people. I could do it for thirty-thousand people or three people, it's just what I know how to do. My soul objective only is for me to have the audience say 'when's the next time I can see him?' That's what I do.
Mike Tyson
I live for the moment to hit people.
Mike Tyson
Boxing brought me money and fame, but it never brought me no happiness.
