It's A Nice Feeling To Go Out

Boxing Is My Real Passion. I Can Go To Ballet, Theatre, Movies, Or Other Sporting Events... And Nothing Is Like The Fights To Me. I'm Excited By The Visual Beauty Of It. A Boxer Can Look So Spectacular By Doing A Good Job.

As I Turn 91... I Have To Admit My Hours At The Easel Have Diminished.

I Love The Passion You Go Through While You're Creating.

I've Got The Public. I Don't Care About The Critics. I Did At One Time. I Don't Any More. I Did When I Needed Compliments. But If You Get A Lot Of Compliments, You Don't Need A Critic To Tell You, 'this Should Be Done Another Way.'

I Guess I Created Leroy Neiman. Nobody Else Told Me How To Do It. Well, I'm A Believer In The Theory That The Artist Is As Important As His Work.
