A champion is someone who gets up when he can't.
A champion owes everybody something. He can never pay back for all the help he got, for making him an idol.
A good fighter usually knows, to within a very few seconds, when a three-minute round is going to end.
All the time he's boxing, he's thinking. All the time he was thinking, I was hitting him.
By forgetting the past and by throwing myself into other interests, I forget to worry.... (more Jack Dempsey quotes)
