Boxing's all about getting the job done as quickly as possible, whether it takes 10 or 15 or 20 rounds.

Being sectioned was the best thing that ever happened to me.

Mental illness can happen to anybody. You can be a dustman, a politician, a Tesco worker... anyone. It could be your dad, your brother or your aunt.

Boxing is the toughest and loneliest sport in the world.

Well, that's cricket Harry. These things happen in boxing

When I came into boxing, I brought it to the next level with adverts and doing pantomime and people just got jealous of me doing that.

Mental illness is a very powerful thing. If it is with you it is probably going to be there until the day you die. I am trying so hard to break mine, but it is not easy. It is my toughest fight ever.

I was in a no-win situation, so I'm glad that I won rather than lost

I was about 18 six years ago. I'm 28 now.

But when you actually go in the ring, it's a very lonely and scary place. It's just you and the other guy.

My trainer, George Francis, used to train a lot of African boxers. They're hungry guys, man. They've got no trainers, got nothing. They're so hungry to do boxing, to make some money.

I can forgive Alfred Nobel for having invented dynamite, but only a fiend in human form could have invented the Nobel Prize.

Inertia! Our ruling class knows one law; no change. Despotism! They know one rule; force. Maldistribution! They know one desire; to hold what is theirs.

The simplest way for me to look at the law of attraction is if I think of myself as a magnet, and I know that a magnet will attract to it.

If we become increasingly humble about how little we know, we may be more eager to search.

With a Web and iPhone app, I try to find new and tiny ways to delight my customers. They may not notice, but it helps drive goodwill and makes your product remarkable.

I have no disagreement with the aims of anti-vivisectionists.

In the ambiguity and shifting playing field of adult life, I often wish I could just fill in a dot and have someone say “Yes” and hand me a chicken leg, or “No” and slap me with an old fish.
