Georges St-Pierre

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.
Georges St-Pierre
Think about climbing a mountain. If you decide you're going up Everest, you don't start with a sprint. You'll never make it out of base camp if you do that. The secret is two fold: make sure your approach is consistent and steady so that you can maintain the progress you're making as your journey continues.
Georges St-Pierre
Nothing really frustrates me to the point of hatred. It's not the worth the energy.
Georges St-Pierre
Innovation keeps me ahead of my competition. It means that my foes must adapt to me, not the other way around.
Georges St-Pierre
No two journeys are alike. Nobody can pretend to know the journey another person takes to achieve his dreams.
