Muhammad Ali is an American former professional boxer, considered among the greatest heavyweights in boxing history. Ali was a controversial figure in his early career and today is regarded for his skills in the ring and the values he expressed of racial justice and religious freedom. This quote said by Ali is very inspirational. The quote means that although the work you are doing towards your goals now may seem to be a challenge but if you never give up on your goals they will be achieved. This is why this quote means so much to a reader. So many times I have felt like giving up when things began to get worse, but after viewing this quote I felt invigorated to complete my goals and overcome these challenges.
Steve Jobs was an american entrepreneur, marketer, and inventor who was the co-founder, chairman and CEO of Apple Inc, Jobs is widely known and recognized as a charismatic and design-driven pioneer computer revolution and for his career in the computer consumer electronics fields. This quote is significant to any reader because of what it tries to communicate to them. This quote tells the reader to follow their dreams not anyone else. Jobs tells the listener that once they can live their own life and to not listen to what other people may say about them, then they can live and everything else will fall in place. This quote is significant to me because just upon finishing high school I was told their is no point for you to do anything because you will never amount to anything. Upon reading this quote I felt that I had to pick myself up and ignore those words and do what I feel I should be able to do.
Like the first quote mentioned this quote is also said by Muhammad Ali. In this quote Ali says something very true about friendship. This being that you can not learn friendship but if you have not learned the true meaning of friendship then you haven't learned anything. This is very significant because the concept of friendship isn't taught to us it is something we should know of. People who do not know what friendship is haven't had a real friend to be begin with meaning that they haven't learned anything about friendship. This is terrible because how could someone without a real friend know anything if they are only by themselves. This quote means a lot to me because I owe my friends everything. If it weren't for them I wouldn't be in the position I am in today. They were the ones who taught me what it means to be a good person and that has shaped me into the man I am today,
