I want my boys to have an understanding of people's emotions, their insecurities, people's distress, and their hopes and dreams.

People think that at the end of the day a man is the only answer. Actually, a fulfilling job is better for me.

I'm aware that people I have loved and have died and are in the spirit world looking after me.

You can't comfort the afflicted with afflicting the comfortable.

I never did films for the money or because I needed to buy a house or car. I do it because I love my job.

If bad and inexperienced politicians control power in Nigeria, my wealth may turn into poverty, and I am not ready to become a poor man.

Let's be real: it's not always the No. 1 contenders who get the title shots. It's who they invest money in and who's kind of a known name. In the lighter weights, just being that I fought seven title fights in a row, I think I'm that guy.

The truth is, I can't help the way people perceive anything, from the role of financial industry in the economic crisis, to the place of women's fiction in the canon of modern literature, to the rank of mint chocolate chip ice cream as a favorite Baskin-Robbins flavor.
