“Yes, sir, no, sir, clock in, clock out. Why were you late? Why are you not in today? That’s not how humans are supposed to live.”

There’s many ups and downs in the fight game.

I’m just looking to learn, grow, stay focused, and become a better fighter and a better athlete.

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?

Artists love to immerse themselves in chaos in order to put it into form, just as God created form out of chaos in Genesis. Forever unsatisfied with the mundane, the apathetic, the conventional, they always push on to newer worlds.

No team works out teamwork.

I believe that things are always going to work out, even if in the beginning it doesn’t look like they are working out. I know in the long run they are going to work out, and it’s going to be fine.

Despite our differences, I know that both Republicans and Democrats love America.

a writer doesn’t only need the time when he’s actually writing – he or she has got to have time to think and time just to let things work out. Nothing is worse for this than society. Nothing is worse for this than the abrasive, if enjoyable, effect of other people.

The biggest thing is to make sure that when something comes out about you that is false that you prove it’s not true.

When I went off to college in 1997, I didn’t go back and watch ‘Conan.’ I was out partying and dating women.

Childhood is a disease – a sickness that you grow out of.
