In the scheme of life, in emotion and loss, I responded the way I did. I lost. I shouldn't have responded that way. I've had some people tell me that I did a great thing - sticking up for myself - but to me, personally, with the way that I handled my emotions, I lost. But I learned. That will not happen again.
Mike Tyson

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
I didn't come from a household where my mother dragged me outside and said, You'd better fight. My mother wouldn't let me fight. I was not an aggressive kid.
Mike Tyson
I did my time for the rape. I paid my money to Las Vegas. I paid my dues.
Mike Tyson
Anger is my biggest enemy in life.
Mike Tyson

Mike Tyson
Our money is bait money, and bait money is not to be used.

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.
