Wrestler

I start small. I'm kind to people. I say please, I say thank you, and I always try to be encouraging and positive.

I think, for me, I really looked at nutrition, talked to some people who knew a lot about nutrition, looked at different meal plans... calorie intake and what I was trying to do. I started slowly. I didn't start as a 'diet.' I started as a lifestyle change.

I'm really impressed with Sheamus. The thing about Sheamus is he's very, very physical. He's a brawler. He's strong, he's hungry, and if he's smart, he'll learn to avoid my right fist.

Arn Anderson - I loved 'The Enforcer' Arn. He cut the best promos. He always looked cool because he had that Polo with the rope chain, the rose-colored glasses, and that mean beard.

I'm kind of a Jack of all trades, master of none.

The only way to get better is to wrestle better people and work with better guys; that's the only way to get better in our business.

It's real easy to talk about stepping in the ring, but once you do actually step in the ring, it takes a lot of courage and mental fortitude to do what we do.

There is nothing more powerful in the world than the human spirit and the human will.

I'm a little worried because I've heard that Shaq has got, like, really fat. If he's going to go into WrestleMania bigger than me, I'm going to lose my moniker as 'The World's Largest Athlete.' I hope he is well. I hope he is healthy.

I found a great trainer in Miami with Dodd Romero, who's worked with a lot of celebrities and athletes. We built a good program for me for training and for me to work on my nutrition and things like that.

The only time I had an ego is I when wanted to have a reverse Undertaker record at WrestleMania, and they messed it up!

WWE is home; it's a family. I'll always be a part of this as long as I can contribute in some positive way. But I know there's a time when the sun sets on everything.

I never thought I'd be good enough. I really didn't. There's probably some fans out there who say I'm still not good enough, and that's OK.

There is nothing that anyone can stop you from doing if you really want.

I've always prided myself on doing what really was best for business.

I was a big kid and a big athlete, but let's be honest: I don't know diddly about football.

Not everybody is going to be John Cena. Not everybody is going to be The Rock. You need to be what you can be and contribute like you can.

Professionally, John Cena has my respect more than anybody I've ever been around in the ring and out of the ring.

I'm not under any pressure other than to go out and have fun.

The way I look at it, I'm more of a man because I'm in touch with my emotions. I think people that deny their emotions are pretty weak individuals, if you want my honest opinion.
