More quotes by Muhammad Ali

Floyd Paterson? Boy, he's the complete opposite to me. He no way like me. They go down in history for just being athletes. I'm getting more praise and credit for doing what I'm doing now on this show than coming here and beating five of your English champions.

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
But when I looked at a lot of the questions they had on them army tests, I just didn't know the answers. I don't even know how to start after finding the answers. That's all.
Muhammad Ali
If I could meet anybody? The prophet Muhammad.
Muhammad Ali
I don't know how many millions I'll make, so I have to give some back to charity. God blesses me with the money, but only if I give some away.
Muhammad Ali
Catching flies is better training than hitting the speed bag
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
I was lucky, from the age of 12 I had boxing talent and was good for my age.
Muhammad Ali
My way of joking is to tell the truth. That's the funniest joke in the world.
Muhammad Ali
