Ali's belief in himself was something I picked up on, and it's become my own philosophy.

You get these moments in the ring that live forever. That's what Muhammad Ali accomplished, and I hope that I have, too.

Boxing is the ultimate challenge. There's nothing that can compare to testing yourself the way you do every time you step in the ring. On the downside, you meet a lot of really bad people in boxing, at all stages of your career.

Boxing was the only career where I wouldn't have to start out at the bottom. I had a good resume.

Learning isn't meant to be confined to a box, and students virtually never 'master' a topic simply by taking a class.

We will hire someone with less experience, less education, and less expertise than someone who has more of those things and has a rotten attitude. Because we can train people. We can teach people how to lead. We can teach people how to provide customer service. But we can't change their DNA.

I don't have a wallet. I carry my driver's license and a couple of credit cards in my phone. That, and a money clip.

When you want a raise, you're not only going in saying: 'I want more money.' You're going in and saying: 'Here's what I want out of my career. Here's what I accomplished. Here's what I said I was going to do. Here's what I've done. Not only do I deserve more money, but I want to get to here on my career.'
