I remember the first Mortal Kombat, when that came out, that was the hardest game of all time. There would be lines at the arcade around the block, and I still love all of the Mortal Kombat games.

My dad just wanted me to find something to do to keep me out of trouble. Boxing was the great escape.

I played a lot of the original Fight Night. I think the depiction of Trinidad in the game was awesome.

As a person, the only people who matter are my kids and how they see me.

Be in control of your life, don’t let circumstances come to control you.

We are living in a popular culture where everything is overexposed.

You see people walking down the street with ear buds on and looking at this or whatever, talking to themselves. So there's more and more opportunity to never be where we actually are and just be.

Ain't nothing quite as beautiful as music.

Soft, sweet things with a lot of fancy dressing - that's what a little boy loves to eat and a grown man prefers to marry.

No matter how much time has passed, these things still affect us and the world we live in. If you don't pay attention to the past, you'll never understand the future. It's all linked together.

People get so used to the dark that they think it's growing brighter. It's possible to fraternize with unbelievers until false doctrine becomes less and less objectionable.
