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.

More quotes by Muhammad Ali
I just can't see myself with a man on the ropes and just to prove how bad I am - and I see in his eyes, his head, he's hopeless - and I'm just deliberately hitting. I don't do that.
Muhammad Ali
There is one hell of a difference between fighting in the ring and going to war in Vietnam.
Muhammad Ali
The fact is I never was too bright in school. I just barely graduated. I had a D- average. I ain't ashamed of it, though. I mean, how much do principals make a month?
Muhammad Ali
I'm going to show you how great I am!
Muhammad Ali
You can do what you want. But it's nature to be with your own. I want to be with my own.
Muhammad Ali
War on nations changes maps. War on poverty maps change.
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
We cannot change the Koran or make no modifications, this cannot be done, or it would no longer be holy.
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
As soon as I heard the truth that Elijah Muhammad teaches us in America, it made me accept it.
Muhammad Ali
The greater our level of understanding, the harder the tests become.
Muhammad Ali
When it comes to love, compassion, and other feelings of the heart, I am rich.
Muhammad Ali
Some gems for the greatest of them all
Muhammad Ali
Be loud, be pretty and keep their black-hatin' asses in their chairs
Muhammad Ali
I am the astronaut of boxing. Joe Louis and Dempsey were just jet pilots. I'm in a world of my own.
Muhammad Ali
Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.
Muhammad Ali
All black Americans have slave names. They have white names names that the slave master has given to them.
Muhammad Ali
Last night I had a dream. When I got to Africa, I had one hell of a rumble. I had to beat Tarzan's behind first, for claiming to be King of the Jungle.
Muhammad Ali
A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.
Muhammad Ali
It's impossible for 30 million black people to be violent against 170 million - we need a mental revolution, unity in coming together, and not physical.
Muhammad Ali
