More quotes by Muhammad Ali
Hittin' hard don't mean nothing if you don't find nothin' to hit.
Muhammad Ali
Sonny Liston is nothing. The man can't talk. The man can't fight. The man needs talking lessons. The man needs boxing lessons. And since he's gonna fight me, he needs falling lessons.
Muhammad Ali
Women are not equal with men, that's sure. When the woman is in danger she always looks to the man for help. We are superior by nature. The black or white woman needn't worry in life because the world is ruled by the white man.
Muhammad Ali
If Ali says a mosquito can pull a plow, don't ask how. Hitch him up.
Muhammad Ali
Not to commit faults counts for more than to do good.
Muhammad Ali
I try to learn as much as I can because I know nothing compared to what I need to know.
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
Boxing's a rough sport. After every fight I rush to the mirror to make sure I'm presentable.
Muhammad Ali
My toughest opponent has always been me.
Muhammad Ali
I said I was the greatest, not the smartest.
Muhammad Ali
Even today, if my title hadn't been given back to me and I was in such poverty where I had to go and find a job, I would have done that.
Muhammad Ali
I've never really resented hard work because I've always liked it. Up every morning for roadwork. Going to the gymnasium every day at 12 o'clock. I never change my pattern.
Muhammad Ali
I was always at the gymnasium every day at six o'clock after school. In the mornings I would run, looking forward to future golden gloves and Olympic tournaments.
Muhammad Ali
I should be a postage stamp. That’s the only way I’ll ever get licked!
Muhammad Ali
Someone stole my bicycle and I said I was going to learn to fight so that I could catch him and beat him up. But I never did catch him. But I ended up the champ of the whole world.
Muhammad Ali
I am America. I am the part you won't recognize. But get used to me. Black, confident, cocky my name, not yours my religion, not yours my goals, my own get used to me.
Muhammad Ali
God works through people. It’s not me.
Muhammad Ali
I'm the most recognised and loved man that ever lived
Muhammad Ali
If the boxers are a little more colorful, talk a little like I did and just do half as much as I did for boxing, it will be all right.
Muhammad Ali
You don't want no pie in the sky when you die, You want something here on the ground while you're still around.
Muhammad Ali
