Fighting is all about calmness and relaxation. My appearance was all an illusion. My appearance is of a mad man, but I'm really calm and collected. Even though I'm fighting, I'm calm and relaxed as possible, despite my displays, because once you get excited, you can't fight at the highest level of your ability.

Fear is your best friend or your worst enemy. It's like fire. If you can control it, it can cook for you it can heat your house. If you can't control it, it will burn everything around you and destroy you. If you can control your fear, it makes you more alert, like a deer coming across the lawn.

I ain't never loan friends money I give it to 'em and I don't expect to get it back. Even when he says, I'll pay you back, I never expect it. If he gives it back, then hey, that's a feather in his cap, but I don't expect to get it back.
