Quote

I will never take the fact that I am Welterweight Champion for granted. I learnt my mistake in the past. No matter how great, no matter how people tell me how great I am, I'm always one mistake away from losing everything.

Fear is the genesis of most of the good things that have occurred in my life. Fear is the beginning of every success I've lived.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
The only way forward in life is innovation.
Georges St-Pierre

I've trained myself to fight an army, so one guy will not defeat me.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Innovation keeps me ahead of my competition. It means that my foes must adapt to me, not the other way around.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Fights aren't won in the octagon, they're won in the months leading up to them, in a near-empty gym, in the lost hours of a day, whether I feel like it or not.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Fear can be a natural ally, a homemade power source... Staying in the present, fear can only help you.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Innovation is very important to me, especially professionally. The alternative, standing pat, leads to complacency, rigidity and eventually failure.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
I try to protect my loved ones, the people I share my life with, because they don't have a public life like me. I want to keep their lives private out of respect for them.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
People have mistaken my break, I took a break from competition, it was because of mental problems, and because I was not agreeing with Performance Enhancing Drugs. I put the things on pause for a while, but I didn't retire.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Because Conor McGregor is so confident - he goes there 'I'll beat this, I will do that' - If I would be his coach I will tell him all the time, behind closed doors, how dangerous [Nate] Diaz is and how much of a war this fight will be and how painful, and long, and uncomfortable it would be, and to get prepared for the worst day of his life.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
I'm training all the time. My goal is perfection. But I will never reach perfection.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
When I go on vacation I just like to do nothing - just hang out at the beach, go eat the best restaurants, and do nothing.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
It's easy to talk, it's harder to fight.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
If you look good, you feel good, and if you feel good, you do good.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
A system that works for one person won't be perfect for another... Individuality is a major part of expanding knowledge.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
Respect is the most important thing. Be respectful toward others and have respect for yourself.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
If you prepare your subconscious for highly stressful situations, you can create harmony with your fears. You can tame fear like a wild animal and use it to your advantage.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
There's no honour fighting in the street, there is nothing to gain.
Georges St-Pierre
Image
I don't want to be an exception, because I was very outspoken about Performance Enhancing Drugs. It would be bad for my reputation if I would have an exemption [for doping test] - I don't want to have a free pass, I want to be like everybody else.

My goal is to share all my learning, all of my knowledge, so that other generations of martial arts will benefit.
