I'm not Superman. Eventually, the grind gets to you. If you're away from your friends, you're not traveling with anyone you like, and you're doing stuff that doesn't creatively stimulate you, that's when it becomes a job.

More quotes by CM Punk
I hear you guys all the time talking about Daniel Bryan, trained by Shawn Michaels. One curious thing to me is, how come you guys never mention William Regal? William Regal did the real work with this young man. Shawn Michaels took $3,000 from him, that's all he ever did.
CM Punk
I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs... my addiction is wrestling - my obsession is competition.
CM Punk
There's one thing you're [John Cena] better at than I am, and that's kissing Vince McMahon's ass. You're as good as kissing Vince's ass as Hulk Hogan was.
CM Punk
I think Mixed Martial Arts is going to be a huge thing coming up in pro wrestling, and I like to think of myself as one of the first guys to try and implement that into my style.
CM Punk
One of the things I want to find out is where the hell are the WWE ice cream bars?!
CM Punk
I don't know if this sounds bad, but I am set. I don't spend my money. I don't buy cars or have an expensive drug habit. The only thing I've ever bought with the money I've made is my house.
CM Punk
I train hard every day, you know. And some days are better than others. Sometimes I punch someone in the face and sometimes I get punched in the face. But I can deal with that outcome because it's instantaneous. It's in the moment and you can learn.
CM Punk
Please. Thank you. Learn it. Love it. Or be disappointed.
CM Punk
I had a Chicago Street Fight a couple of years back in Ring of Honor that was really bloody and really violent. That is probably the closest thing to the Extreme Elimination Chamber I can think of.
CM Punk
Pro wrestling has always been ingrained into American culture. It was one of the first things that was ever on television, so everybody watched it.
CM Punk
A whole bunch of people told me that if I went to WWE, I'd never make it. But it's like I never heard them. I never listened. To me, I'm exactly where I belong. I feel like I was born to do this. Whatever your walk in life is, you pick what you want to be, then go ahead and be the best one.
CM Punk
The best thing you can probably do is keep a low profile, keep your eyes and ears open, your mouth shut, and you will learn a ton.
CM Punk
Sometimes it's what you don't do that makes you who you are.
CM Punk
For some reason, talking is easy for me. Practice does make perfect I've been doing it for a while. Being out there in a high-pressure situation with a live audience and a live TV camera on you, it brings something out. It's very organic.
CM Punk
I think pro wrestling doesn't seem to get a lot of mainstream attention until somebody dies.
CM Punk
The CM stands for Cole Miner.
CM Punk
Stay down, David. Stay down.
CM Punk
Survivor Series is something that was very surreal to me to be a part of, but now, I just want to do it again.
CM Punk
I would much rather be hated for who I am, then loved for something that I am not.
CM Punk
So what? I'm out here doing commentary with Malaria.
