More quotes by Georges St-Pierre
Growth is a long term game, and the crappy days are more important.
Georges St-Pierre
My fear delivered one of the great lessons of my life: That someone without fear can’t push himself. He can’t get better. He can’t transform negatives into positives. He can’t open his world to creativity and invention, or even progress.
Georges St-Pierre
Seeking knowledge is like opening doors. And I know the doors are everywhere.
Georges St-Pierre
The only way forward in life is innovation.
Georges St-Pierre
I bow to my opponent in praise and thanks. After the fight is a time for humility, acceptance and analysis, no matter the result.
Georges St-Pierre
A guy that has more knowledge has the advantage.
Georges St-Pierre
I've trained myself to fight an army, so one guy will not defeat me.
Georges St-Pierre
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
I am a public person and I have my private life. It's important for me that my private life stay private, that what I share with the people is my public personality.
Georges St-Pierre

Georges St-Pierre
Always pursue your dreams and work hard at it.
Georges St-Pierre
If you want to be a proud person, then you want to avenge your loss. For me it was [Josean] Serra and [Joe] Hughes, and for Michael Bisping, Henderson is one of his losses - one of his most painful losses. So I understand why he wants to avenge it. As an athlete I understand.
Georges St-Pierre
I'm the kind of guy who only makes a mistake once, never twice.
Georges St-Pierre
People often say, 'Ah, ultimate fighting is so violent,' but it's rooted in martial arts. Martial arts incarnate respect. You can't walk into a dojo and say to your sensei, 'Hey, salut tabarnac!' After every one of my fights I go and shake the hand of my opponent. I don't need to hate the other fighter to fight him well. It's a sport.
Georges St-Pierre
I think it makes your stronger to admit that you're scared, because you're not scared to say that you're scared.
Georges St-Pierre
Sometimes I'm under the impression some of the fights happen that they shouldn't happen because a guy's cheating. Also, I think when something like this happen they should have not only a suspension but also monetary wise enforce a penalty. Maybe take the purse of the fighter to the other fighter.
Georges St-Pierre
One of the lessons I learned in all those years practicing karate is that progress only comes in small incremental portions.
Georges St-Pierre
If I come back and I lose, at least I know I did everything I should have done, I have no regrets, I'll be happy. I can die happy.
Georges St-Pierre
I had two ACL injuries in my life, and both of them happened when I was training with bigger guys a heavyweight and a light heavyweight. Sometimes it's not even because the guy is good, you just get hurt.
