“[Some of the lands held by Muslims were wealthy. Tariq Ali, the author of] The Book of Saladin, ... Nothing is ever motivated purely by religion or ideology. They wanted the money. It was as simple as that.”
Godfrey of Bouillon

Muhammad Ali
“[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!”
“Ali was just incredible tonight.”
Binky Favis
“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.”
Curt Fredrickson
“If anything, I think that was why we were a little shell-shocked early because Ali was struggling and we look to Ali so much.”
Curt Miller
“Ali eats much better here and lives much better.”
Claudia Rodriguez
“Would it be fun to watch Muhammad Ali box Muhammad Ali? Would it be fun to watch 10 Michael Jordans out on the basketball floor? What we do is part business and part fun, and it's part science and part art. If it becomes pure business and pure science, I don't want to play any more.”
Dan Rosenberg
“Basically Ali is pitching in the second half of her freshman year to a great degree. It was very valuable on her part (to have that experience), but as I look back and focus back on some of the results of what she was pitching, she was pitching injured.”
Don Howard
“Ali is looking forward to having a good swim. The pressure is off once you make it to the state.”
