More quotes by Muhammad Ali
Lighting that torch in Atlanta didn't make me nervous. Standing up to the government - that made me nervous.
Muhammad Ali
Who would have thought when they came to the fight? That they'd witness the launching of a human satellite.
Muhammad Ali
I have learned to live my life one step, one breath, and one moment at a time, but it was a long road. I set out on a journey of love, seeking truth, peace and understanding. I am still learning.
Muhammad Ali
Brooding over blunders is the biggest blunder.
Muhammad Ali
War on nations changes maps. War on poverty maps change.
Muhammad Ali
It's not bragging if you can back it up.
Muhammad Ali
I can love freedom and the flesh and blood of my people moreso than I do the money.
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
I’m gonna whup whoever stole my bike!
Muhammad Ali
You may talk about Sweden, you may talk about Rome, but Rockville Center's Floyd Patterson's home. A lot of people said that Floyd couldn't fight, but you should have seen him on the comeback night.
Muhammad Ali
If we continue to think and live as if we belong only to different cultures and different religions, with separate missions and goals, we will always be in self-defeating competition with each other. Once we realize we are all members of humanity, we will want to compete in the spirit of love.
Muhammad Ali
I have nothing to lose by standing up and following my beliefs. So I'll go to jail, so what? We have been in jail for years.
Muhammad Ali
When a man says I cannot, he has made a suggestion to himself. He has weakened his power of accomplishing that which otherwise would have been accomplished.
Muhammad Ali
There are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.
Muhammad Ali
Anywhere I go, there is always an incredible crowd that follows me. In Rome, as I land at the airport, even the men kiss me. I love Rome.
Muhammad Ali
If you look at the world the same way when you're 50 that you did when you were 20, then you wasted 30 years.
Muhammad Ali
Sonny Liston is nothing. The man can't talk. The man can't fight. The man needs talking lessons. The man needs boxing lessons. And since he's gonna fight me, he needs falling lessons.
Muhammad Ali
I was always at the gymnasium every day at six o'clock after school. In the mornings I would run, looking forward to future golden gloves and Olympic tournaments.
Muhammad Ali
I'm so mean I make medicine sick!
Muhammad Ali
Fifteen referees. I want fifteen referees to be at this fight because there ain't no one man who can keep up with the pace I'm gonna set except me. There's not a man alive who can whup me. I'm too fast. I'm too smart. I'm too pretty. I should be a postage stamp. That's the only way I'll ever get licked.
Muhammad Ali
