Muhammad Ali

Don’t count the days; make the days count.

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.

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them - a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have the skill, and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.

Live everyday as if it were your last because someday you're going to be right.

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

What keeps me going is goals.

If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it - then I can achieve it.

What you're thinking is what you're becoming.

A man who has no imagination has no wings.

Braggin' is when a person says something and can’t do it. I do what I say.

Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.

We can't be brave without fear.

The fight is won or lost far away from the witnesses, behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road; long before I dance under those lights.

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

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 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.

I've never let anyone talk me into not believing in myself.

I don't count my sit-ups; I only start counting when it starts hurting because they’re the only ones that count.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. His hands can't hit what his eyes can't see. Now you see me, now you don't. George thinks he will, but I know he won't.
