"I always try to attack. While I'm on the offensive, my opponent can think of nothing but defending."
"Ever since ADCC 2003 people come up to me and say, 'Did you see your bracket? It's the toughest one there is!' And I always reply with 'I didn't even look.' It's always the tough- est bracket, but thank God I al- ways win it."

"I wasn’t a good student, and even now I never say that I am better than anybody, but I know I love Jiu Jitsu more than anybody. I love the energy and that it gets deeper the more you study."
"When I step on the mat I know there is no other place I'd rather be."
"Everyone is the same for the first two minutes, everyone has a chance to win, but after that you start to seperate physically and mentally."
"Sometimes I just want to be with my family and watch movie and eat some popcorn. But when I step on the mat I know there is no other place I'd rather be."
"Why do I beat a lot of people? Because I love it so much, that’s why. Everything about Jiu Jitsu, I love it – the school, the mat, the ring. I always believe that. Maybe I am not better than my opponent, but I know for sure I love my training more."
