- My determination comes from within, knowing that every setback is just a setup for a comeback.

- I’m so mean, I make medicine sick. I talk the talk and walk the walk.
- The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses – behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

- Faith isn’t just about belief; it’s about action. It guides my every decision, in and out of the ring.
- Embracing Islam helped me understand my role in the world, fighting not just for myself, but for justice.
- My religion is Islam. I’m proud to be a Muslim and proud to be a black man.
- I ain’t got no quarrel with them Viet Cong. No Viet Cong ever called me n****r.
- My conscience won’t let me go shoot my brother, or some darker people, or some poor hungry people in the mud.
- I have been warned that to take such a stand would cost me the heavyweight championship and my career. But I’d rather stand for what I believe in.

- I’ve always said that my boxing career was just a stepping stone to what I really wanted to do: change the world.
- My true legacy lies in the lives I’ve touched, the minds I’ve inspired, and the hearts I’ve lifted.
- Being a champion in the ring is one thing, but being a champion for humanity is everything.
- I wanted to use my fame and fortune to help uplift people and make a difference in the world.
- Long after the punches are forgotten, my message of peace, love, and equality will remain.
- Joe Frazier was the toughest fight I ever had. He brought out the best in me.
- George Foreman was a mountain I had to climb, and in Zaire, I showed the world how to do it.
- Sonny Liston was a giant, but I proved that speed, strategy, and heart can overcome any challenge.
- Every rivalry pushed me to new heights, each opponent a test of my will and skill.
- These rivalries weren’t just about boxing; they were about proving who I am and what I stand for.
- I showed the world that an athlete can be more than just a performer; they can be a voice for change.

- Through every triumph and trial, I’ve stayed true to myself, and that’s the greatest victory of all.
