I think the media makes it tough to play in New York. There are so many papers and TV channels covering the Knicks and the expectations for the Knicks are so high.

I enjoyed my time in Utah. It was a different area to what I was used to. The people there were very nice and it was a great organization and city. I have only good things to say about Utah.

Not having a father helping you grow into manhood and teaching you those things about how to be a man hurts. It hurt my brothers because their fathers weren't involved in their lives.

There were butterflies, otherwise, you're not really ready to play. The locker room, I remember, was quiet and we were very focused on playing that game.

Michael Jordan was a great individual and a great player. You can't say enough about what he brought to the game. He took the NBA to another level.

Michael Jordan makes you bring your game to another level. That's why I loved competing against him.

Even if you know where you are going and what problems you have to solve, you may only know the nearest tasks and you may not understand completely all of your tasks

The way to make your dreams come true is to absolutely believe in them.

I can't die until the government finds a safe place to bury my liver

I was drawn to acting because it was the one place that I found an emotional outlet.

I've got the blues in my heart, and the devil in my fingers.

I'm also a fan of ridiculously coloured and patterned socks.

I had been brought up in a church which decides everything and permits no doubts, so that having rejected one article of faith I was forced to reject the rest.

My day's work will begin again the next morning. The tomb is not a blind alley.

They call Ray Robinson the best fighter, pound for pound. I'm the best fighter, ounce for ounce.
