I wanted to get in the ring and be like Muhammad Ali.

It's not the black belt that you wear on your waist. It's the black belt in your heart and knowing that you can go out there and you can do it. That's what a true black belt is.

You had women's kickboxing and they're in the ring and that's what I want to do. I just wanted to fight.

Through Biblical times, there have been great women warriors and now the sport is so populated that these are the women warriors that we have today in boxing, kickboxing, and MMA.

I always wanted to box.

I am a woman and I don't have the power and the strength of a man, so I have to use my technique and my strategy more than just using brute strength like some of the guys do.

Fighters before a fight, they shouldn't get riled up.

The belts to me, they don't really mean much to be honest. It's the people who I fought and me going out there competing and fighting.

Belts are immaterial. What's material to me is who have you fought, how many rounds have you fought, how many fights have you fought.

It takes a lot when you are a professional fighter to stay in top condition. You have to sacrifice a lot and I did.

None of us are ordinary – we just settle into ordinary lives.

My heart is beating like it's lonely, like there's nothing else inside of me.

The great majority of men use their own short-sighted ideas as a yardstick for measuring the divine omnipotence.

A bacteriologist is a man whose conversation always start with the germ of an idea.

I'll protect you. I'll stand by you if anything happens.

The best decision-makers are always armed with the best information and data!

I believe that nothing in life is unimportant every moment can be a beginning.

Ultimately there can be no disagreement between history, science, philosophy, and theology. Where there is disagreement, there is either ignorance or error.

I'm very close with Bob and his lovely, fabulous wife Catherine, too.
