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.

More quotes by Bear Grylls
You only get one chance at life and you have to grab it boldly.
Bear Grylls
I always had a really natural faith as a kid. Where I knew God existed and it felt very free and pretty wild and natural, and it wasn't religious.
Bear Grylls
A friend once asked me what qualities were needed for SAS. I would say to be self-motivated and resilient to be calm, yet have the ability to smile when it is grim to be unflappable, be able to react fast and to have an ‘improvise, adapt and overcome’ mentality.
Bear Grylls
Eating any of these things, goat testicles or what have you, isn't going to be nice, but you get into that zone, you become focussed and you do what you need to do. It's all about one thing: coming home in one piece.
Bear Grylls
I look back and understand the world a bit better and know how competitive it is .
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
I'm probably going to be the scruffiest Chief Scout you've ever had and my health and safety policy is non-existent.
Bear Grylls
Our achievements are generally limited only by the beliefs we impose on ourselves.
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
Time and experience have taught me that fame and money very rarely go to the worthy, by the way - hence we shouldn't ever be too impressed by either of those impostors. Value folk for who they are, how they live and what they give - that's a much better benchmark.
Bear Grylls
My work is all about adventure and teamwork in some of the most inhospitable jungles, mountains and deserts on the planet. If you aren't able to look after yourself and each other, then people die.
Bear Grylls
Both faith and fear may sail into your harbor, but only allow faith to drop anchor.
Bear Grylls
I had many opportunities to get behind products in the past, and I was always careful to evaluate all of them. I will not put my name to shoddy items.
Bear Grylls
I said no to the Born Survivor producer three times because I've never aspired to be a TV man.
Bear Grylls
You can't live someone else's expectations in life. It's a recipe for disaster.
Bear Grylls
The rewards of the wild and the rewards of the survivor go to those who can dig deep, and, ultimately, to the guy who can stay alive.
Bear Grylls
All my life the only thing I've been good at has been climbing and throwing myself off big things.
Bear Grylls
I grew up on survival shows and they were always just so...anoraky.
Bear Grylls
I have held healthy respects of bears along with assorted crocodiles, snakes and lots of other animals. You know, bears are dangerous, you have to be super careful.
Bear Grylls
Well, wolves will pretty rarely hunt. You're vulnerable if you're on your own or injured. But for lone wolves, get up high, show them that you're not injured, face 'em off, be authoritarian with it, and look 'em in the eye.
