More quotes by Muhammad Ali
I just try to stay half way decent looking. Boxing's a rough sport and you get hit a lot.
Muhammad Ali
I'm not going to be that kind of a fighter. I'm going to dance and be pretty. I'm just going to win on points.And if I hurt my man I'm going to let him go and I'm not going to kill him just because somebody's watching.
Muhammad Ali
A black, a Puerto Rican and a Mexican are in a car. Who's driving? The police.
Muhammad Ali
Anyhow, I don't think Don King's a very good man. But then again, I doubt that a good man *could* succeed in his business. I'm sure boxing was a dirty sport before he came around. He may have just made it moreso. So that's about all I've got to say about him.
Muhammad Ali
If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize.
Muhammad Ali
If you want to be equal with me, you can get your own Rolls-Royce, your own house and your own million dollars.
Muhammad Ali
A lot of wars are fought between black and whites daily in America. But if it's something I want to be with, the people who started it were black, I wouldn't not get in it.
Muhammad Ali
The sun is always shining someplace.
Muhammad Ali
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
We have one life / It soon will be past / What we do for God / Is all that will last.
Muhammad Ali
Our only hope lies in the power of our love, generosity, tolerance and understanding and our commitment to making the world a better place for all.
Muhammad Ali
It's not bragging if you can back it up.
Muhammad Ali
I am an ordinary man who worked hard to develop the talent I was given.
Muhammad Ali
I didn't run with a gang - I didn't have time. There were a few little street gangs sitting in the spotlights at night time - talking and playing marbles. But I was so wrapped up in boxing since I was 12.
Muhammad Ali
My main purpose is to pray five times a day. And that's not easy.
Muhammad Ali
I can drown a drink of water. I can kill a dead tree. Don't mess with Muhammad Ali.
Muhammad Ali
All through my life, I have been tested. My will has been tested, my courage has been tested, my strength has been tested. Now my patience and endurance are being tested.
Muhammad Ali
I'm pretty as a girl.
Muhammad Ali
If you love God, tear out your heart's love of the world.
Muhammad Ali
How many push ups do you do? I don't know. I only starts counting when it starts hurting
