I've always had an ability... I've done a lot of things wrong, and I've had a lot of lackings. But the one strength I've had, if I had a strength, is to understand somehow... through osmosis, I guess, to learn the lesson that what's important is not what's in front of you for those five seconds, for that moment in life. It's what's left behind you when those five seconds are gone.

Whether you stand up there and you get shot in the head and the guy freaking blows your brains out or you're freaking, you stand up here or you're fighting a guy who's like a scary guy to fight, but you fight him and you beat him or he beats you up.

It don't matter that you got shot in the head. I know that sounds absurd.

You know how many times I went and I, there were things, whether it was with this one, with Tyson, with that. I didn't want to be there. I was scared to death.

I don't freaking want to be next to that guy. If I want to freaking go down that road, I'll watch Papillon. You know what I mean? And I'll get my fill from that. But I don't want to freaking live it. I'm afraid of what my children would think of me if I fail in those areas. Why? Because that's forever. When I'm closing my eyes for the last time, I don't want to have that fear.

You know, I laugh because I was around guys years ago that used to, when we'd talk about that, you know, injustice, And we get a kick out of this one guy who's been around the block a few times. When he say, hey, Teddy, I ain't worried about that. I got friends in both places. That's a good line.
