Number one comes freedom first for my people and equality. And this is what I plan to do after I'm through fighting - working with nothing but the people, the little people in the alleys: the downtrodden people, going out and helping them with my image.

Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.

Malcolm X got famous mainly by being hard on white people, white devils, blue-eyed blond-headed dogs.

My main purpose is to pray five times a day. And that's not easy.

I barely got out of school, I got out of school, mainly, because I was a champ, and I actually didn't pass. I won't name the teachers that put me through, but I want. If I was not a Muslim, or a follower of the Honorable Elijah Mohammed I couldn't talk to somebody for two minutes. I believe I can hold my own as an intelligent conversation, but it all come from the Honorable Elijah Mohammed.

My trainer don't tell me nothing between rounds. I don't allow him to. I fight the fight. All I want to know is did I win the round. It's too late for advice.

Get up and say Elijah Muhammad is wrong when he says white are the devil? They have to prove they are not the devil.
