Muhammad Ali
I can love freedom and the flesh and blood of my people moreso than I do the money.
Muhammad Ali
Only last week I murdered a rock, injured a stone and hospitalized a brick.

If you wonder what the difference between them and me is, I'll break the news: you never heard of them. Most of them ... can fight almost as good as I can. I'm just saying you never heard of them.
Muhammad Ali
