9.  "Silence is golden when you can't think of a good answer."

8.  "I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world."

6.  "The will must be stronger than the skill."

5.  "Don't count the days. Make the days count."

4.  "The fight is won or lost far away from the witnesses, behind the lines, in the gym and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights."

3.  "I am the greatest. I said that even before I knew I was. I figured that if I said it enough, I would convince the world that I was really the greatest."

And the #1 quote should inspire everybody that is an underdog...

1.  "Impossible is just a word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing."
