People don't realise what they had till it's gone. Like President Kennedy - nobody like him. Like The Beatles, there will never be anything like them. Like my man, Elvis Presley - I was the Elvis of boxing.

More quotes by Muhammad Ali
Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing
Muhammad Ali
God tries you in certain, certain ways. Some people are rich, and they believe in God. They lose the money, things get hard, they get weak and quit going to church. Quit serving God like they did.
Muhammad Ali
Don't ever squeeze a fighter's hand, man. You're doing good just to lay your eyes on me

Muhammad Ali
I've been on planes flying through thunder storms when the pilot says, 'ladies and gentlemen, we tried to fly around it but we can't so it's going to be rough'.And when a pilot says it's going to be bad, it's going to be rough. And you say to youself, boy, I could have got the train.
Muhammad Ali
We black people, as a whole, are at war we'll say with the white power structure. Not physically, but we have definite protests to win the battle.
Muhammad Ali
Why do I want my wife to show off her panties when the wind blows? Horses show their behinds, and cows and mules, not humans.
Muhammad Ali
It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am.
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
A lot of wars are fought between black and whites daily in America. But if it's something I want to be with, the people who started it were black, I wouldn't not get in it.
Muhammad Ali
I don't see no black and white couples in England or America walking around proud holding their children and going out.
Muhammad Ali
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
I was saying I'm the greatest long before I believed it.
Muhammad Ali
This life is not real. I conquered the world and it did not bring me satisfaction.
Muhammad Ali
We're not trying to take power away or rule anybody - we're just trying to get up from under the rulers.
Muhammad Ali
