More quotes by Muhammad Ali
His hands can't hit what his eyes can't see.
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
It will be a killer, and a chiller, and a thriller, when I get the gorilla in Manila.
Muhammad Ali
Since I won't let the critics seal my fate, they keep hollering I'm full of hate. But they don't really hurt me none, 'cause I'm doing good and having fun.
Muhammad Ali
I just give lip service to being the greatest. He was the greatest.
Muhammad Ali
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
Champions have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.
Muhammad Ali
I'm going to, not I'm gonna. Talk intelligent
Muhammad Ali
My soul has grown over the years, and some of my views have changed. As long as I am alive, I will continue to try to understand more because the work of the heart is never done.
Muhammad Ali
That man was beautiful. Timing, speed, reflexes, rhythm, his body, everything was beautiful. And to me, still, I would say pound for pound... I'd say I'm the greatest heavyweight of all time, but pound for pound, I still say Sugar Ray Robinson was the greatest of all time.
Muhammad Ali
I need to get everything straight. I'm not involved in a power struggle between black and white.
Muhammad Ali
A black, a Puerto Rican and a Mexican are in a car. Who's driving? The police.
Muhammad Ali
Get up and say Elijah Muhammad is wrong when he says white are the devil? They have to prove they are not the devil.
Muhammad Ali
Boxing is a lot of white men watching two black men beat each other up.
Muhammad Ali
There are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.
Muhammad Ali
We cannot change the Koran or make no modifications, this cannot be done, or it would no longer be holy.
Muhammad Ali
I know I got it made while the masses of black people are catchin' hell, but as long as they ain't free, I ain't free.
Muhammad Ali
Even today, if my title hadn't been given back to me and I was in such poverty where I had to go and find a job, I would have done that.
Muhammad Ali
The world’s champ should be pretty like me!
Muhammad Ali
You don't want no pie in the sky when you die, You want something here on the ground while you're still around.
Muhammad Ali
