More quotes by George Foreman

George Foreman
The world is full of people who want to play it safe, people who have tremendous potential but never use it. Somewhere deep inside them, they know that they could do more in life, be more, and have more -- if only they were willing to take a few risks.

You can't talk about him unless you can beat him and it doesn't seem that there's anyone around who can truly beat him.

George Foreman
There ain't nothing like being in the corner, and the trainer is whispering in your ear and another guy is putting in your mouthpiece. Five seconds to go, the boom! The bell. It's more exciting than looking down a cliff.
George Foreman
People trust me. I sell sincerity.
George Foreman
If you want to be obsessed to be your best, you must get ride of the negative things that are weighing you down.
George Foreman
Anybody going into boxing already has brain damage.
George Foreman
Being angry and resentful of someone is like letting them live rent-free in your head.
George Foreman
I want to keep fighting because it's the only thing that keeps me out of the hamburger joints. If I don't fight, I'll eat this planet.
George Foreman
If you want it, leave your excuses behind and come and get it
George Foreman
Sometimes God gives instructions that go against conventional wisdom, such as treating people kindly when they're hateful. Who really wants to do that? Instructions like that may not always make sense, so that's why I need to trust and obey the One who inspired them.
