More quotes by Mike Tyson
Most of my fans are too sensitive. I’m a cruel and cold and hard person. I’ve been abused in every way you can imagine. Save your tears. I lost my sensitivity. You embarrass me when you cry.
Mike Tyson
You can't be everybody's friend, you can't save the world, I learned this word: self-preservation. Once you do that, you can be friends with people, but how would you be a friend to anybody if you're not a friend to yourself.
Mike Tyson
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.
Mike Tyson
In order to be a friend to anybody, you have to be a friend to yourself. If you're not a friend to yourself, there's no way you're gonna have any friends.

Mike Tyson
Some people are faster than others I'm just figuring it out later, that's all. I'm getting smart too late and old too soon.
Mike Tyson
I did my time for the rape. I paid my money to Las Vegas. I paid my dues.
Mike Tyson
I know why they don't like me because they want the money I have.
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 had to persevere because this was my life. This championship, this was the stuff I dreamt of all my life, and I wasn't gonna be denied.
Mike Tyson
My main objective is to be professional but to kill him.
Mike Tyson
I may have smoked too much weed, but I wasn't taking drugs or anything.
Mike Tyson
I'm not a Republican, but I have some conservative views on certain things. I'm not a Democrat, either. It's just very difficult that these people hate each other over a belief. I think it all comes down to ego and competitiveness.
Mike Tyson
Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
Mike Tyson
Every punch was thrown with bad intentions.
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.
