Muhammad Ali
I figure I'll be champ for about ten years and then I'll let my brother take over - like the Kennedys down in Washington.
Muhammad Ali
I can love freedom and the flesh and blood of my people moreso than I do the money.

Muhammad Ali
Boxing is good for the livelihood but mainly, money don't really mean nothing.
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
The only limitations one has, are the ones they place on themselves
Muhammad Ali
Eat your words! Eat your words! I am the greatest.
Muhammad Ali
Someone stole my bicycle and I said I was going to learn to fight so that I could catch him and beat him up. But I never did catch him. But I ended up the champ of the whole world.
Muhammad Ali
Do you know why I’m the fastest heavyweight in the world? I’m the only heavyweight that trains underwater!
Muhammad Ali
They used to draw cartoons of Jews in Germany. Later they started killing them in the Holocaust.
Muhammad Ali
True success is reaching our potential without compromising our values.
Muhammad Ali
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
Wouldn't it be a beautiful world if just 10 percent of the people who believe in the power of love would compete with one another to see who could do the most good for the most people?
Muhammad Ali
Most people don't pray until they're in trouble. When people need help they pray a lot. But after they get what they want, they slow down. If a man takes five showers a day, his body will be clean. Praying five times a day helps me clean my mind.
Muhammad Ali
I don't count my sit-ups. I only start counting when it starts hurting. That is when I start counting, because then it really counts. That's what makes you a champion.
Muhammad Ali
I live. I travel. I eat. I pray. These are the things I do. I'd rather be in my condition than be a man with four children in a four-bedroom house, working hard every day to pay for his house, taking his children to school.
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
