More quotes by Muhammad Ali
Anyhow, I don't think Don King's a very good man. But then again, I doubt that a good man *could* succeed in his business. I'm sure boxing was a dirty sport before he came around. He may have just made it moreso. So that's about all I've got to say about him.
Muhammad Ali
I don't know what truculent means, but if it's good, it's me
Muhammad Ali
You have a right to say what you believe, and I have a right.
Muhammad Ali
I am America. I am the part you won't recognize. But get used to me. Black, confident, cocky my name, not yours my religion, not yours my goals, my own get used to me.
Muhammad Ali
Do not be ashamed to give a little for to deceive is to give still less.
Muhammad Ali
Hell no / I ain't going to go / Clean out my cell / And take my tail / To jail / Without bail / Because it's better there eating / Watching television fed / Than in Vietnam with your white folks dead.
Muhammad Ali
You been hearing about how bad I am since you were a little kid with mess in your pants! Tonight, I'm gonna whip you till you cry like a baby.
Muhammad Ali
The outgoing and spontaneous person that the world knew while I was boxing was a persona that I created to sell tickets and promote my career. In my private life, I am quiet and reflective by nature.
Muhammad Ali
When you saw me in the boxing ring fighting, it wasn't just so I could beat my opponent. My fighting had a purpose. I had to be successful in order to get people to listen to the things I had to say.
Muhammad Ali
Politicians are always saying that they are in support of Iraqi citizens and now they are increasing the price of petrol. We were oppressed for 35 years. We are like a sick patient who is in need of care, and they are increasing prices
Muhammad Ali
This life is not real. I conquered the world and it did not bring me satisfaction.
Muhammad Ali
I'm a Muslim. I've been a Muslim for 20 years. . . . You know me. I'm a boxer. I've been called the greatest. People recognize me for being a boxer and a man of truth. I wouldn't be here representing Islam if it were terrorist. . . . I think all people should know the truth, come to recognize the truth. Islam is peace.
Muhammad Ali
I don't call myself a political figure but I'm taken to be.
Muhammad Ali
If I could meet anybody? The prophet Muhammad.
Muhammad Ali
I'll destroy you. I am the master of disaster.
Muhammad Ali
Oh! how the hours hasten to change into days, the days into months, the months into years, and those into life's annihilation!
Muhammad Ali
The word 'Islam' means 'peace.' The word 'Muslim' means 'one who surrenders to God.' But the press makes us seem like haters.
Muhammad Ali
Fifty years old, 212 fights, and I'm still pretty.
Muhammad Ali
I've never really resented hard work because I've always liked it. Up every morning for roadwork. Going to the gymnasium every day at 12 o'clock. I never change my pattern.
Muhammad Ali
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
Muhammad Ali
