I pursued this art so fervently because it was not actually Jiu Jitsu I pursued. It was myself."

It is simply imperative that the sweat is properly directed."

"Win told me that one isn't improved by being at the top of the mountain, one is improved by the climb."

"You look like gold. I've been fooled before, but now I know I've made the mistake in the past. But now I, now I know the difference from gold and brass."
"Life is short and if you're looking for extension, you had best do well. 'Cause there's good deeds and then there's good intentions. They are as far apart as Heaven and Hell."
"We went for the best overall feel on each song. There are no musical overdubs at all. It's a true live record; it's one of the few true live records out there."
