George Foreman
A boxer never sees the big one that hits him.
George Foreman
Everything America should be, Muhammad Ali is.
George Foreman
Forgiveness is that subtle thread that binds both love and friendship. Without forgiveness, you may not even have a child one day.
George Foreman
Being angry and resentful of someone is like letting them live rent-free in your head.
George Foreman
We, too, need to be patient, especially when it comes to reaching new goals.
