I would like to say that whites jumped right behind Malcolm X. They’re makin’ a book about him, it’s required readin’ in all colleges now, and they’re makin’ a movie about him, and projectin’ him as the leader and if you read his book and see the movie that’s comin’ out, it’ll make you hate Elijah Mohammed and the Muslims. Mainly, this is done to turn the black people against the real leader and I’d like to say that this is the way white people rule.

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

I don't consider myself no attractive man. People like Tom Jones and Elvis Presley - I'm not nothing like that.

What you're thinking is what you're becoming.

It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

The man who will whip me will be fast, strong and hasn't been born yet.

I am an ordinary man who worked hard to develop the talent I was given.
