“Birds fly and fish swim and I do this.”

You’re going to fall, but you got to stand.

I don’t worry about losing all my fans. Whatever true fans you’ve got will stick by you, so that’s nothing to worry about

It comes down to having fun and doing what I love.

It’s not a certain technique, it’s not a skillit’s all in your mind, it’s how far you want to go

I just want to be known as the greatest everis that too much to ask?

Fighting is pure chaos, and to be a good fighter you simply have to be prepared mentally and physically to handle that chaos.

People could connect with me… I think the appeal was that, “Here he is, he’s just a normal guy like us, and he’s giving it his all”.

What you put into it is what you’re going to get out of it. If you’re getting the chance to step into the octagon, you better be going full speed and give it everything you’ve got.

I always gave it the best shot I had, whether it went my way or not that night.

Just try to give as much as you can through your daily life to yourself and the people around you.

There is no way to be truly great in this world. We are impaled on the crook of conditioning.

A fish that is in the water has no choice that he is. Genius would have it that we swim in sand. We are fish and we drown.

Windows work two ways, mirrors one way. You never walk through mirrors or swim through windows.

I felt like I was staring out across an ocean that I was going to have to swim from shore to shore before I could rest again.

I burned all our bridges – not knowing that love knows how to swim.

If drowning taught me how to swim, this fall will teach me how to fall.

I tried to drown my sorrows, but the bastards learned how to swim, and now I am overwhelmed by this decent and good feeling.

I drank to drown my sorrows, but the damned things learned how to swim.
