More quotes by Muhammad Ali
In Florida I was illiterate, Boxing Authority didn't want me, then they had a special psychiatrist to come to Kentucky, they checked and they didn't want me. But as soon as my name was Mohammed Ali, as soon as I announced I was a Muslim, then all of a sudden I became smart.

Muhammad Ali
In the big leagues everyone has ability. It always comes down to mind games. Who ever is more mentally strong-wins.
Muhammad Ali
Religions have different names, and they all contain truth, expressed in different ways forms and times
Muhammad Ali
It's impossible for 30 million black people to be violent against 170 million - we need a mental revolution, unity in coming together, and not physical.
