More quotes by Muhammad Ali
A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.
Muhammad Ali

Muhammad Ali
I was lucky, from the age of 12 I had boxing talent and was good for my age.
Muhammad Ali
I just try to stay half way decent looking. Boxing's a rough sport and you get hit a lot.
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
When I was 9, I saw a wrestler on television named Gorgeous George. He said, I'm beautiful. I'm so pretty that if a sucker touches my face, I'll kill him. If he messes with my hair, I'll pummel him. I said to myself, That's a good idea. I am the greatest, I'm pretty. And then I took it a little further than he did.
Muhammad Ali
I am an ordinary man who worked hard to develop the talent I was given.

Muhammad Ali
When you saw me in the boxing ring fighting, it wasn't just so I could beat my opponent. My fighting had a purpose. I had to be successful in order to get people to listen to the things I had to say.
Muhammad Ali
People don't realise what they had till it's gone. Like President Kennedy - nobody like him. Like The Beatles, there will never be anything like them. Like my man, Elvis Presley - I was the Elvis of boxing.
Muhammad Ali
I sought the advice and cooperation from all those around me- but not permission.
Muhammad Ali
I'm sure no intelligent white person, in his or her right white mind, want black men and women marrying their white sons and daughters and in return introducing their grandchildren to half brown, kinky haired black people.
Muhammad Ali
I've got it! I've got it! It'll make front-page headlines around the world. You can have me kidnapped, and then a couple of days before the fight I'll show up again
Muhammad Ali
His hands can't hit what his eyes can't see.
Muhammad Ali
I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world.
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
Mr. president, I've been a citizen of the United States of America for thirty three years and was never invited to the White House. It sure gives me pleasure to be invited to the Black House.
Muhammad Ali
