More quotes by Bear Grylls
I always wanted to be Robin Hood or John the Baptist when I was growing up.
Bear Grylls
The line between life or death is determined by what we are willing to do.
Bear Grylls
When you find yourself thinking about someone or something in the same old negative way, just stop yourself. Think. Check. Change. Refresh. Job done. Smile. Move on. Do this enough times and you will change. For the better for the stronger.
Bear Grylls
Life is an adventure that is best lived boldly
Bear Grylls
Above all, I feel a quiet pride that for the rest of my days I can look at myself in the mirror and know that once upon a time I was good enough. Good enough to call myself a member of the SAS. Some things don’t have a price tag.
Bear Grylls
The difference between ordinary and extra-ordinary is so often just simply that little word - extra.
Bear Grylls
Nobody wants to end up super rich and famous - but divorced. I'm always clear on that and try to stay on the right side of the line.
Bear Grylls
You're not human if you don't feel fear. But I've learnt to treat fear as an emotion that sharpens me. It's there to give me that edge for what I have to do.
Bear Grylls
The only difference between 'try' and 'triumph' is varying degrees of 'umph'
Bear Grylls
I do see a lot of the hard end of ecology, and my feeling is that we live on a super-exciting planet but a super-fragile one.
Bear Grylls
I've eaten sheep's eyes, the still hot meat from a zebra killed by a lion, and maggots which give you 70 calories to the ounce.
Bear Grylls
I didn't want to do eight seasons of How To Build A Fire. The intention was to make something fun and dynamic and about self rescue, not about whittling.
Bear Grylls
I never wanted to do TV. I just did what I was trained to do through the Special Forces, and I've been doing that from a very young age.
Bear Grylls
But the wild is unpredictable, stuff does happen, and it's always when you're least expecting it.
Bear Grylls
You only get one chance at life and you have to grab it boldly.
Bear Grylls
What I've learned over the years is that the path less traveled always makes for a more interesting journey. If you simply do what everyone else is doing, how can you ever expect to excel and create something wonderful and unique in your life?
Bear Grylls
For me, my training is a key part of my work as so often my life has depended on being able to move fast and haul myself up and out of something fast!
Bear Grylls
You can't live someone else's expectations in life. It's a recipe for disaster.
Bear Grylls
My best life lessons and education didn't come from a classroom - they've come from the wild. How you act in the big moments, the ones that challenge you, scare you, tempt you, and force you to make the right decisions, is what defines you.
Bear Grylls
Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.
Bear Grylls
