More quotes by George Foreman
To be successful in life, you must get in the habit of turning negatives into positives.
George Foreman
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
You may have even an ex-wife or an ex-husband, but you can never have ex-children.
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
I look at my children and one thing I'm most proud of, in my heart, are my children.
George Foreman

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
Changing your nature is the hardest thing to do. But I discovered that you can be who you choose to be.
George Foreman
I respect that you want to protect your niece. You know, I didn't want my daughter to become a boxer. Neither did Mohammad. But Joe Frazier, on the other hand, he had his baby girl boxing in the crib.
George Foreman
Heroes have a rough time because they stand up when they ought not to, they speak when they ought not to they always have to go that extra mile.
George Foreman

George Foreman
All my sons are named George Foreman. They all know where they came from.
George Foreman
Just look at the great Nelson Mandela. He came out of prison and saved his entire country. Some of the best people in the world have spent time in prison.
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
Boxing is the sport to which all other sports aspire.
George Foreman
If I could take a punch like that, I might have been able to think up a name besides George for all my sons.
