George Foreman Dream Quotations

The Olympic Gold medal in 1968 was definitely the highest moment of my career. It was a dream come true. I was a 19-year-old boy, and it was just amazing to be standing on top of the podium and hearing the National Anthem in the background.

I wanted to be the best street fighter in Houston, Texas. And I thought if I got a trophy or two, I'd go back home, and everyone would be afraid of me. I had one fight in '67, the first one. In '68 of October, I was an Olympic gold-medalist, a dream come true, with a total of 25 boxing matches.

Everybody wants to be somebody. The thing you have to do is give them confidence they can. You have to give a kid a dream.

As a child I was sometimes so hungry that I used to dream that one day I'd get locked in a grocery store.

If you don't dream, you might as well be dead.
