More quotes by Bear Grylls
Look, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, sometimes you need a bit of luck.
Bear Grylls
I hang out all the time with kids and young scouts and I never meet kids who don't want adventure.
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
Textbook survival tells you to stay put. Stop. Wait for rescue. Don't take any risks. But there'd been a whole host of survival shows like that and I didn't really want to do that.
Bear Grylls
Unless you have shelter, fire is going to be very hard and if you have fire, but no water, you're going to die. They're all super important.
Bear Grylls
Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.
Bear Grylls
Weather can kill you so fast. The first priority of survival is getting protection from the extreme weather.
Bear Grylls
Live a wild, generous full, exciting life – blessing those around you and seeing the good in all.
Bear Grylls
I look back and understand the world a bit better and know how competitive it is .
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
Many people find it hard to understand what it is about a mountain that draws men and women to risk their lives on her freezing, icy faces - all for a chance at that single, solitary moment on the top. It can be hard to explain. But I also relate to the quote that says, Iif you have to ask, you will never understand.
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
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
There's no magic to running far or climbing Everest. Endurance is mental strength. It's all about heart.
Bear Grylls
Some of the greatest survivors have been women. Look at the courage so many women have shown after surviving earthquakes in the rubble for days on end.
Bear Grylls
But the wild is unpredictable, stuff does happen, and it's always when you're least expecting it.
Bear Grylls
Our achievements are generally limited only by the beliefs we impose on ourselves.
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
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
One killer exercise that's really great is pull-ups with your legs out level. That's my favourite. It's such functional core strength, and that's why I can climb up trees and down vines.
