I get that you were going for inspirational, but check out the prefight for Dan Henderson v. Rich Franklin. Franklin was genuinely funny... it made me a fan of his for the first time quite honestly.

The world ends when you're dead. Until then, there's more punishment to come. So stand it like a man and try to give some back.

It's not a MMA quote but it's my favorite quote and one I try and live my life by: "The grass is only greener on the other side when you forget to water your own lawn."

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."

This isn't from an MMA or even a Martial Arts guru, but I like it anyway.

Let me elaborate on the above quote:

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing." — Muhammad Ali

"I will die $#@*ing in my pants like everyone else but knowing who I was… knowing for sure, truly, who I was.”- Renzo Gracie

For some reason I find this quote very motivational.

11th dan in Parnes Jiu-Jitsu, it's one more than Ransom's. Real PJJ goes to 11!

I'm not sure how much of this caries over to fighting, but as a soldier, I've always found this extremely motivating.

"I might not just come at him with an arm bar or a kimura. I may come at him with a rear naked clam jam, chuckle berry handshake, or a triple decker pecker wrecker. He's not gonna have an answer for a triple decker pecker wrecker, I guarantee it."
