Muhammad Ali: Remembering The Greatest

He floated.
He stung.
He was The Greatest.

My favorite quotes from Ali.

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

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

I am so fast that last night I turned off the light switch and was in bed before the room was dark.

Don’t count the days. Make the days count.

It isn’t the mountains ahead that wear you down. It’s the pebble in your shoe.

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

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

Float like a butterfly. Sting like a bee. Your hands can’t hit, what your eyes can’t see.

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. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
