More quotes by Muhammad Ali

Image
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
Image
I said, 'Oh, I know. If the white folks is in Heaven too, then the black angels were in the kitchen, preparing the milk and honey.'
Muhammad Ali
Image
Love is the net where hearts are caught like fish.
Muhammad Ali
Image
Not to commit faults counts for more than to do good.
Muhammad Ali
Image
Joe Frazier is ugly. He has no rhythm, no footwork, no class, he cannot talk.
Muhammad Ali
Image
This boldness in telling the truth overshadows sport greatly. You couldn't get Joe Frazier or no boxer on this show and get interest in a subject like this. He couldn't talk about it.
Muhammad Ali
Image
You lose nothing when fighting for a cause ... In my mind the losers are those who don't have a cause they care about.
Muhammad Ali
Image
While Frazier was a man of few words / Ali was a world of mouth / but he found his place in history / Now his heart can express him well / Joe Frazier was a silent warrior / whom Ali silently admired / One could not rise without the other
Muhammad Ali
Image
I sought the advice and cooperation from all those around me- but not permission.
Muhammad Ali
Image
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
Image
I was the first one in the gym, and the last one to leave.
Muhammad Ali
Image
Boxing is a stepping stone just to introduce me to the audience. If I was still in Louisville, Kentucky and never was a boxer I still might get killed next week in some kind of freedom struggle and you'd ever hear the news.
Muhammad Ali
Image
Women are not equal with men, that's sure. When the woman is in danger she always looks to the man for help. We are superior by nature. The black or white woman needn't worry in life because the world is ruled by the white man.
Muhammad Ali
Image
In America they got two policemen, five policemen and one car watching each other, each has got a pistol, one has got a machine gun, one' got a shotgun and two dogs growling at each other.
Muhammad Ali
Image
Prejudice comes from being in the dark sunlight disinfects it.
Muhammad Ali
Image
I was always curious. I always wondered why Tarzan is the King of the Jungle in Africa, he was white.
Muhammad Ali
Image
If I could meet anybody? The prophet Muhammad.
Muhammad Ali
Image
If you love God, tear out your heart's love of the world.
Muhammad Ali
Image
The man who has no imagination has no wings.

If they can make penicillin out of mouldy bread, they can sure make something out of you.
