Cantina Quote o' The Week: Muhammed Ali

It's just a job.  Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand.  I beat people up.

-Muhammed Ali

I trust everybody knows who Muhammed Ali is.  If not, click the link, and then you'll understand the quote, and why it's so damned funny.

I'm not a boxing fan meself, but I'm definitely a fan of anyone who can say that with a straight face.

Cassius Clay aka Muhammed Ali was the best character in boxing ever. I find boxing to be nothing more than human cockfighting. Nevertheless, his sense of humor was always welcome.

This man was funny but so serious as well.

In addition is this quote.
I ain't got no quarrel with the Vietcong. No Vietcong ever called me Nigger

We must not forget too the role this man played in ending the war in Vietnam and how hepayed the price for that stance.
