George Foreman's Quotes

Food makes me happy.""I'm on a see-food diet. I see food, I eat it."[plugging his TV series] "And you better be watching, or I'll beat you up and eat all of your food.
On his boxing comeback, "I didn't come back for the money. I just got sick of beating people up for free."
I called them all George because I was worried that when I was older I might suffer from memory loss. I would have called my five girls George, too, but my wife said she thought that was overkill. When one of them is naughty, I shout 'George!' and that one knows who I mean. The only time it is awkward for me is when a teacher calls up and say we have a problem with George, and I have to ask them which one.
As a child I was sometimes so hungry that I used to dream that one day I'd get locked in a grocery store.
I never did anything for personal gain. When I was a boxer, I wanted to be champion of the world, not the richest man in the world. If you can maintain that integrity in whatever you do, you can't go wrong. That's what I tell my kids, anyway.
