A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life. - Muhammad Ali
It isn't the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it's the pebble in your shoe. - Muhammad Ali
It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen. - Muhammad Ali
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. - Muhammad Ali
I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world. - Muhammad Ali
Hating people because of their colour is wrong. And it doesn't matter which colour does the hating. It's just plain wrong. - Muhammad Ali

Wars of nations are fought to change maps. But wars of poverty are fought to map change. - Muhammad Ali
It is paradoxical, yet true, to say, that the more we know, the more ignorant we become in the absolute sense, for it is only through enlightenment that we become conscious of our limitations.

Modern science says: 'The sun is the past, the earth is the present, the moon is the future.' From an incandescent mass we have originated, and into a frozen mass we shall turn. Merciless is the law of nature, and rapidly and irresistibly we are drawn to our doom. - Nikola Tesla
It seems that I have always been ahead of my time. I had to wait nineteen years before Niagara was harnessed by my system, fifteen years before the basic inventions for wireless which I gave to the world in 1893 were applied universally. - Nikola Tesla
The trend of opinion among eugenists is that we must make marriage more difficult. Certainly no one who is not a desirable parent should be permitted to produce progeny. - Nikola Tesla
