More quotes by George Foreman
The age of 40 is not a death sentence.
George Foreman
You have to keep your goal in mind and never lose sight of it. I envisioned myself winning the heavyweight title for ten years before I actually captured it. If you're not driven to do your best, you'll never reach the level of excellence in your life.
George Foreman
All I've ever tried to tell anyone is that I'm not a black man or a white man or anything else. All I've ever been was an American.
George Foreman
Today the biggest decisions I make aren't related to the heavyweight title. They are whether I visit McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, or Jack-in-the-Box.
George Foreman
Learn to sell and you'll never starve

Its very important that people know that I really enjoy everything that has happened to me. And I tell my kids... youre not going to be the tallest, fastest, prettiest, the best track runner, but you can be the nicest human being that someone has ever met in their life. And I just want to leave that legacy that being nice is a true treasure.
George Foreman
As a child I was sometimes so hungry that I used to dream that one day I'd get locked in a grocery store.
George Foreman
I hope to have one more boxing match at the age of 55. Given that demographic at the age of 55 to 65, you've got to make a statement with your life. Otherwise, you are just existing.
George Foreman
When I was a kid in Houston, we were so poor we couldn't afford the last 2 letters, so we called ourselves po'.
George Foreman
The Rope a Dope would not have existed without the Big Dope.
George Foreman
People trust me. I sell sincerity.
George Foreman
I don't even think about a retirement program because I'm working for the Lord, for the Almighty. And even thought the Lord's pay isn't very high, his retirement program is, you might say, out of this world.
George Foreman
If you want it, leave your excuses behind and come and get it
George Foreman
When I was a boxer, I wanted to be champion of the world, not the richest man in the world.
George Foreman
You live and learn. Then you die and forget it all.
George Foreman
No doubt about it, in my career Ron Lyle hit me the hardest. One time he hit me so hard I didn't see it until I saw it on film when I woke up!
George Foreman
Everybody wants to be somebody. The thing you have to do is give them confidence they can. You have to give a kid a dream.
George Foreman
