More quotes by Muhammad Ali
The man who has no imagination has no wings.
Muhammad Ali
The more we help others, the more we help ourselves

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
Be obedient to your superior, and your inferior will obey you.
Muhammad Ali

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
Only last week I murdered a rock, injured a stone and hospitalized a brick.
Muhammad Ali
I predict that this will be the greatest book ever and it will sell more than any other book in history
Muhammad Ali
Life is a gamble. You can get hurt, but people die in plane crashes, lose their arms and legs in car accidents people die every day. Same with fighters: some die, some get hurt, some go on. You just don't let yourself believe it will happen to you.
Muhammad Ali
In the ring I can stay until I’m old and gray because I know how to hit and dance away
Muhammad Ali
They can boo me, yell at me, and throw peanuts at me, as long as they pay to get in.
Muhammad Ali
Will be a divine fight, a holy war...Armageddon on a miniature scale.
Muhammad Ali
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
Muhammad Ali
