If I come back and I lose, at least I know I did everything I should have done, I have no regrets, I'll be happy. I can die happy.

It's not always the best team that wins the game it's the team that plays better.

I want to use every second of my life, every time that I have in my life, to make me a better fighter. That's why I'm a martial artist. For me, it's more than a job - it's a way of living

Always pursue your dreams and work hard at it.

A guy that has more knowledge has the advantage.

People often say, 'Ah, ultimate fighting is so violent,' but it's rooted in martial arts. Martial arts incarnate respect. You can't walk into a dojo and say to your sensei, 'Hey, salut tabarnac!' After every one of my fights I go and shake the hand of my opponent. I don't need to hate the other fighter to fight him well. It's a sport.

It’s OK to get butterfly in your stomach; the key is to learn how to make them fly in formation.
