As I went through my online platform today, the news was every where. It was trending and lots of stuffs were said about this icon that has passed through the last phase of life's tunnel into the world beyond. He was Muhammed Ali also nicknamed THE GREATEST. He at the early hours of June 3rd 2016, haven suffered respiratory illness, complicated by Parkinson's disease departed this world. He was aged 74 years.

Ali M would be remembered for his boxing skills and  great quotes. He won 56 of his 61 fights and there has not being another like him. He was an icon to be reckoned with. Life teaches us that whatever we find doing, must be done with the utmost desire from us to be the best.

Your life after a job, career or permanent exist should be a referral to others. If you are not making an impact where you are, it's never too late to start.

Below are his famous quotes as coined form LinkedIn as posted by "Christopher Schroeder".

1. I know where I am going and I know the truth and don't have to be what you want me to be. I am free to be what I want .

2. I should be a postage stamp. That's the only way i will ever get licked.

3. What you are thinking is what you are becoming.

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

5. He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.

6. Champions aren't made in gyms, they are made from something they have deep inside them.

7. It isn't the mountains ahead to climb that wears you out, it's the pebble in your shoe.

8. Don't count the days, make  the days count.

9. Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship , you really haven't learnt anything .

10. Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.

Adieu THE GREATEST.
