Quote

Believe it or not, I say my prayers in the morning and in the evening.

I write in my study, where I also have my prayer altar. I believe that keeps me focused and gives me positive energy and reminds me that I'm merely the instrument of greater creative forces.

Devotion, as it relates to the title of my memoir, means fidelity - as in fidelity to a person or a practice. I think it's certainly possible to feel devotion without having faith, at least in the religious sense of the word.

Prayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening.

I am a religious person and rely heavily on prayers.

I do Athlete Devotion throughout all my fight camps. I am a Christian, so I fight with God first, and I have my devotions with me everywhere I go.

I pray every night, sometimes long prayers about a lot of things and a lot of people, but I don't talk about it or brag about it because that's between God and me, and I'm no better than anybody else in God's sight.

I'm a very hard-line, angry atheist. Yet I am fascinated by the concept of devotion.

I say three prayers every night to make sure that God knows I thank him so much.
