Georges St-Pierre
Nothing really frustrates me to the point of hatred. It's not the worth the energy.

Georges St-Pierre

Only way to eliminate the element of surprise is to know yourself and now your adversary.
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
I was a big fan of Jean-Claude Van-Damme growing up, and I always wanted to be a martial artist 'cause of him.
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
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
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
A system that works for one person won't be perfect for another... Individuality is a major part of expanding knowledge.
Georges St-Pierre
Innovation is very important to me, especially professionally. The alternative, standing pat, leads to complacency, rigidity and eventually failure.
Georges St-Pierre
I'm not impressed by your performance.
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
Innovation, born from true creativity, depends on movement.
Georges St-Pierre
Growth is a long term game, and the crappy days are more important.
Georges St-Pierre
In fighting, in evolution, in life, efficiency is the key.
Georges St-Pierre
There's no honour fighting in the street, there is nothing to gain.
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
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.
