In order to succeed greatly, you have to be prepared to fail greatly. If you can't do both of them, you've got a problem.

I'm a nut case, but that is what I believe.
Mike Tyson
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.
Mike Tyson
Money is my God. If you think God will help you then quit your job and see how much he cares.
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
I'm the best fighter in the world. No one can beat me....My objective is to inflict as much pain as possible, to win and win spectacularly...Ever since I was 12 years old, I was groomed to be the heavyweight champion of the world. I've been prepared to handle the pressure, the dealing with the press, everything.
Mike Tyson
Fighting is not physical, fighting is spiritual. It's the determination and the will in the guy.
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 feel like sometimes that I was not meant for this society.
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
If Jesus was here, do you think Jesus would show me any love? Do you think Jesus would love me?
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
Most writers, in my opinion, are dysfunctional derelicts.
Mike Tyson
It's unnatural to fight somebody who has nothing against you and never did anything to you or to your family, who never stole anything from you. And now you've got to go and try to dismantle this guy.
Mike Tyson
I am not a role model.
Mike Tyson
My main objective is to be professional but to kill him.
Mike Tyson
I fight for perfection
