Muhammad Ali

Religions all have different names, but they all contain the same truths. … I think the people of our religion should be tolerant and understand people believe different things.

The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.

If Ali says a mosquito can pull a plow, don't ask how. Hitch him up.

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

I never thought of losing, but now that it's happened, the only thing is to do it right. That's my obligation to all the people who believe in me. We all have to take defeats in life.

Archie's been living off the fat of the land. I'm here to give him his pension plan. When you come to the fight don't block the door. 'Cause you'll all go home after round four.

It's a lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believe in myself.

I'm retiring because there are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.

I hated every minute of it. But I said to myself, 'Suffer now, and live the rest of your life as a champion'.

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