Muhammad Ali : (6) " Joe Frazier is so ugly that when he cries, the tears turn around and go down the back of his head. " - Muhammad Ali " Life is so, so short. Bible says it’s like a vapor. " - Muhammad Ali " Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams – they all have different names, but they all contain water. Just as religions do – they all contain truths. " - Muhammad Ali " The Nation of Islam’s main focus was teaching black pride and self-awareness. Why should we keep trying to force ourselves into white restaurants and schools when white people didn’t want us? Why not clean up our own neighborhoods and schools instead of trying to move out of them and into white people’s neighborhoods? " - Muhammad Ali " I’m no leader; I’m a little humble follower. " - Muhammad Ali " I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale; handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail; only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick; I’m so mean I make medicine sick. " - Muhammad Ali
