Changing your nature is the hardest thing to do. But I discovered that you can be who you choose to be.

Everything America should be, Muhammad Ali is.

One of my goals is to inspire everyone I meet to become a better person.

Put your name on something, it better be the best... you only get one shot.

Everybody wants to be somebody. The thing you have to do is give them confidence they can. You have to give a kid a dream.

You have to keep your goal in mind and never lose sight of it. I envisioned myself winning the heavyweight title for ten years before I actually captured it. If you're not driven to do your best, you'll never reach the level of excellence in your life.

Klitschko has had a good career. A lot of his fights have been out of the country as though he hasn't even been invited into the real heavyweight picture in the United States. He's a good fighter. You can't talk about him unless you can beat him and it doesn't seem that there's anyone around who can truly beat him.
