I know this is a literature forum, but I bet there isn't a member who hasn't heard of Muhammad Ali. Perhaps he was a controversial figure in America - that's politics - but in Britain he was loved. A gobby black man, an intelligent boxer who's humour was imbued with wisdom, a man who took on fame and lived up to the expectations it brought - in and out of the ring. RIP.
How do you choose a quote from the thousands from the most famous man in the world? Perhaps this:-
"I wish people would love everybody else the way they love me. It would be a better world. - Muhammad Ali.
What would you choose?
