George Zimmerman quotes:

I think that people assumed I was white because of my last name. My father is Caucasian, my mother is Hispanic. But English was my second language, believe it or not.

Honestly, I want to live a calm life without being in the press. I want to be like any other American citizen who gets a speeding ticket or has an argument with his spouse... and doesn't have the whole world know.

I recognize I have faults. I'm accountable for them, and I try to do what I can to correct them. I will say that it's unfortunate that everything I do is scrutinized to the point that it is. Frankly, I don't watch the news, I stay away from political conversations.

Conceit and confidence are both of them cheats; the first always imposes on itself, the second frequently deceives others too.

I deal with the hatred by loving my supporters more.

Leisure, the highest happiness on earth, is seldom enjoyed with perfect satisfaction, except in solitude.

Nobody notices when things go right.

Only in a true life or death scenario can you have mental clearness to know that you cannot feel guilty for surviving.

As a result of the incident and subsequent media coverage, I have been forced to leave my home, my school, my employer, my family and ultimately, my entire life,

I'd like to professionally... continue my education and hopefully become an attorney. I think that's the best way to stop the miscarriage of justice that happened to me from happening to somebody else. I don't think it should ever happen to anyone ever again - not one person.
