“Ali was just incredible tonight.”

“[Frazier soaked it all up like a sponge. When they arrived in Manila it was the same story. Ali poured scorn on his opponent. Humiliated him. Joe had the heart of a lion but verbally he was out of his depth when Ali got going. One time, as fight day approached, Ali spotted Frazier on a hotel balcony, grabbed a security guard's gun and fired some rounds at him. Everybody knew it wasn't live ammo but it still startled the hell out of Joe.] Go back in your hole, Gorilla, ... You gonna scare the people! Come out again and I'm gonna kill ya before time!”
Muhammad Ali
“The man who views the world at fifty the same as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.”

“It's hard to beat someone three times, especially when you have two teams of this magnitude. This was Ali-Frazier. We won two out of three, but they won the bigger prize.”

“Ali stepped up and had a nice game. She made a couple of tough shots inside and was able to get to the free-throw line a few times. Miranda also stepped up her level of play.”

“A black car exploded next to me. My brother, Ali , was with me. At the time of the explosion, he was torn into pieces of flesh.”
