"I'm addicted to perfection. Problem with my..." - Quote by Mike Tyson

“I'm scared every time I go into the ring, but it's how you handle it. What you have to do is plant your feet, bite down on your mouthpiece and say, 'Let's go.'”

“Not to be egotistical, but I don't think there is a man on this planet who can beat me”

“I don't have to be that gentleman ["baddest man on the planet"] anymore. Now I have to be "this" guy. And in order to be "this" guy, I have to be smiling, I have to be gregarious, I have to be entertaining, and I have to be friendly. This is what my career needs now. I've adapted. But 20 years from now, I may need a different persona.”

“The more intelligent, the less sane”

“All action begins in rest... This is the ultimate truth.”

“Rich people are poor people with money.”

“Nature never wears a mean appearance. Neither does the wisest man extort her secret, and lose his curiosity by finding out all her perfection.”

“Perfection is one thing and enjoyment another; these two having different ends, engage men differently.”

“Take pains. Be perfect.”
