More quotes by Muhammad Ali
I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world.
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
I can drown a drink of water. I can kill a dead tree. Don't mess with Muhammad Ali.
Muhammad Ali
I'm not trying to get power over white. I'm involved in a freedom struggle. Not a power struggle.
Muhammad Ali
If you look at the world the same way when you're 50 that you did when you were 20, then you wasted 30 years.
Muhammad Ali
The sweetness of life lies in dispensing with formalities.
Muhammad Ali
I'm relyin' on Almighty God, Allah, and whatever happens happens.
Muhammad Ali
The man of least capacity is the one who shows himself incapable of self-correction.
Muhammad Ali
God tries you in certain, certain ways. Some people are rich, and they believe in God. They lose the money, things get hard, they get weak and quit going to church. Quit serving God like they did.
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
They used to draw cartoons of Jews in Germany. Later they started killing them in the Holocaust.
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
It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am.
Muhammad Ali
When a chivalrous man makes an oath, he is faithful to it, and when he attains power, he spares his enemy.
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
Do not be ashamed to give a little for to deceive is to give still less.
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
I said I was the greatest, not the smartest.
Muhammad Ali
I'm definitely gonna be the People's champion ... but I just ain't gonna be the champ the way you want me to be the champ. I'm gonna be the champ the way I wanna be.
Muhammad Ali
America don't have no future! America's going to be destroyed! Allah's going to divinely chastise America! Violence, crimes, earthquakes - there's gonna be all kinds of trouble. America's going to pay for all its lynchings and killings of slaves and what it's done to black people.
