    		Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.

    The actual quote was more like:

    "I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. You can't beat the greatest because I am Muhammad Ali"

    This line can be heard in the documentary film 'When We Were Kings'

    Here is a few more of his famous quips.

    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    There are more pleasant things to do than beat up people.

    It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.
    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    The man who has no imagination has no wings.

    Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams. They have different names but all contain water. Religions have different names, but all contain truth.
    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them: A desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill.
    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    It's hard to be humble when you're as great as I am.
    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    Only a man who knows what it is like to be defeated can reach down to the bottom of his soul and come up with the extra ounce of power it takes to win when the match is even.
    Muhammad Ali (1942 - )

    Everything I do has a purpose, all of God's beings have a purpose. Others may know pleasure, but pleasure is not happiness. It has no more importance than a shadow following a man.
