Muhammad Ali

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

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it.

Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It’s not something you learn in school. But if you haven’t learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven’t learned anything.

Champions aren't made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision.

Age is whatever you think it is. You are as old as you think you are.

My principles are more important than the money or my title.

God tries you in certain, certain ways. Some people are rich, and they believe in God. They lose the money, things get hard, they get weak and quit going to church. Quit serving God like they did.

It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

I believe in the religion of Islam. I believe in Allah and peace.

If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize.

He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.

Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

I hated every minute of training, but I said, 'Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.'

I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.

I know where I'm going and I know the truth, and I don't have to be what you want me to be. I'm free to be what I want.

The man who has no imagination has no wings.

Don't count the days, make the days count.
