Muhammad Ali
Image
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
Image
Black people in America will never be free so long as they're on the white man's land. We can't be free until we get our own land and our own country in North America. When we separate from America and take maybe ten states, then we'll be free.
Muhammad Ali

Whoever knocks persistently, ends by entering.
Muhammad Ali
Image
I try to learn as much as I can because I know nothing compared to what I need to know.
Muhammad Ali

Enjoy your children, even when they don't act the way you want them to.
Muhammad Ali

I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world.

There are no pleasures in a fight but some of my fights have been a pleasure to win.
