Human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.
— Manny Pacquiao
I've worked in construction, in a factory sewing clothes. I also sold flowers and doughnuts - just odd jobs to try to make 10 pesos, which is equivalent to 20 cents.
I have to give people time to take a picture, and sign autographs. I have to be generous to people. It is in my heart. Without that, I would not be Manny Pacquiao.
Boxing is not about your feelings. It's about performance.
My #1 driving force is my lord and savior Jesus Christ. Also my family, my wife and children.
God only expects man and woman to be together and to be legally married, only if they so are in love with each other.
I don't have secrets in my life. Everything is out there.
If we don't have God in our life, we're considered dead.
I know what poverty is.
I know everyone in the Philippines is happy.
I don't mind having these relatives. I'll give them a little, since they all prayed for my victory.
The most important thing as a leader is your relationship with God.
I have a relative who is also gay. We can't help it if they were born that way.
Being a Christian means accepting Christ as your savior, your God. That's why you are called a 'Christian.' If you remove Christ, there's only 'ian' and that means 'I am nothing.'
Boxing is a sport. We allow each other to hit each other, but I'm not treating my opponent like my enemy. We're doing a job to entertain people.
I'm just a regular person who believes life is simple, and I like a simple life.
I'm not against gay people. I have a relative who is also gay. We can't help it if they were born that way.
In boxing you never know who you're going to face in ring.
God's words first... obey God's law first before considering the laws of man.
You know, America is - for me, it's the best country.
With experience in boxing, you learn how to be a scientific boxer and how to fight easy.
Nothing personal - I am just doing my job.
Only in death will I relinquish my belts.
All those who are around me are the bridge to my success, so they are all important.
I've already established my (political)machinery. It's like a car. It's fixed already. You just have to get in and drive it.
I'm not against gay people.
I've always fought for my country, in my own way, showing that Filipinos are a strong people and can do anything that they put their minds to.
I want the people of the Philippines to be happy, even if they have nothing.
Most of leaders in Philippine politics come from rich family.
I eat the same foods almost every day. I have my favorites like Filipino beef broth, chicken soup with lots and lots of rice.
I remember as a little boy I ate one meal a day and sometimes slept in the street. I will never forget that and it inspires me to fight hard, stay strong and remember all the people of my country, trying to achieve better for themselves.
Well you know it's dangerous in politics, because especially in the Philippines there's a lot of killing in politics.
Being a public servant, this is a serious job, not like a boxer, you're entertaining people.
I come from a poor family.
I was just doing my job in the ring and doing my best to make people happy.
I wanted to be a world champion.
No notes. You speak from deep in your heart. It's easy.
I only gave out my opinion that same sex marriage is against the law of God.
