“Even when I was a kid, everything I had was the best.”

There is definitely an addiction to money that I have.

I don’t feel bitterness, I don’t feel anger towards anybody. Fighting is never emotional to me.

When I do something, I do it full steam ahead.

From the moment I open my eyes, I’m trying to free my body. I’m trying to get looser, more flexible, to gain control. Movement is medicine to me.

I’ve always felt like there was a lot of hype around me even when there wasn’t. I felt like everyone was talking about me even when no one was talking about me.

I will fight in many weight divisions.

I carry the flag of Ireland all the time. I want to represent my country.

I think it’s an Irish thing. We don’t really care. We say it as we mean it, and you have to deal with it. The truth is the truth.

I’ll die a crazy old man!

I don’t look at a man who’s expert in one area as a specialist. I look at him as a rookie in ten other areas.

I knew I’d be in the UFC since I started my career.

I don’t feel pressure in a negative way. I like pressure. I feel excitement and calm at the same time. No pressure, no diamonds. I want pressure: pressure creates drama, creates emotion.

The same way as failure never being fatal. Just keep going. I’m going to the stars and then past them.

Life’s a rollercoaster. You’re up one minute; you’re down one minute. But who doesn’t like rollercoasters?

The left paw has done me well over the years. I’m not a scientist, I’m a martial artist.

A good feeling for me is when you train, and then you put on fresh clothes. New clothes after a training session – you have this rush of endorphins from exercise that everybody gets, and then you get that nice feeling of fresh clothes. It’s a double whammy.

The best armor is to keep out of range.

True love is no game of the faint-hearted and the weak; it is born of strength and understanding.

It is the best thing that can happen to an actor. I am one of the youngest to belong. If I can keep this up and nothing interferes with my progress

A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.

The winner is the chef who takes the same ingredients as everyone else and produces the best results.

Since a true knowledge of nature gives us pleasure, a lively imitation of it, either in poetry or painting, must produce a much greater; for both these arts are not only true imitations of nature, but of the best nature.

There are men who teach best by not teaching at all.

It may have been in pieces, but I gave you the best of me.
