More quotes by Muhammad Ali
The man of least capacity is the one who shows himself incapable of self-correction.
Muhammad Ali
I said a lot of things in the heat of the moment that I shouldn't have said. Called him names I shouldn't have called him. I apologise for that. I'm sorry. It was all meant to promote the fight.
Muhammad Ali
Inside of a ring or out, ain't nothing wrong with going down. It's staying down that's wrong.

Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali
Parkinson's is my toughest fight. No, it doesn't hurt. It's hard to explain. I'm being tested to see if I'll keep praying, to see if I'll keep my faith. All great people are tested by God.
Muhammad Ali
My main fight is for freedom and equality.
Muhammad Ali
In a competition of love we'll all share in the victory, no matter who comes first
Muhammad Ali
A black, a Puerto Rican and a Mexican are in a car. Who's driving? The police.
Muhammad Ali
I don't have to be what you want me to be.
Muhammad Ali
I was saying I'm the greatest long before I believed it.
Muhammad Ali
Hell no / I ain't going to go / Clean out my cell / And take my tail / To jail / Without bail / Because it's better there eating / Watching television fed / Than in Vietnam with your white folks dead.
Muhammad Ali
Whoever listens to slander is himself a slanderer.
Muhammad Ali
Fifteen referees. I want fifteen referees to be at this fight because there ain't no one man who can keep up with the pace I'm gonna set except me. There's not a man alive who can whup me. I'm too fast. I'm too smart. I'm too pretty. I should be a postage stamp. That's the only way I'll ever get licked.
Muhammad Ali
