I used to tease Joe Louis by reminding him that I was the greatest of all time. But Joe Louis was the greatest heavyweight fighter ever.

Joe is the hero and Sammy is the sidekick. That's how I feel about it.

Two of my biggest heroes were my father and John Wayne.

I don't think Joe Louis could take the punches today fighting in this era.

Heroes are people who are all good with no bad in them. That's the way I always saw Joe DiMaggio. He was beyond question one of the greatest players of the century.

I've really had two heroes in my life. My father and Ronald Reagan.

Lou Reed was a hero because he was an anti-hero.
