I was always bigger than the other girls. My sisters are very, very beautiful and very skinny, and I've always had a more muscular body. So I grew up with a different mentality.

I wake up every morning and I surprise myself. I wake up to a new me.

I'm really surprised how many people knew me as Gina Carano. MMA has a beautiful fan base.

When you do things for the right reasons, eventually no matter how long it takes, people will take notice of it and can't help but respect it.

There's nothing that can teach you more than experience.

Fighting's given me confidence but it's also broken me down and kept me humble.

I didn't really watch action films growing up! I grew up on stuff like 'Anne of Green Gables' - that was more when I was in elementary school. It was all I ever watched.

I know I'm always rooting for the underdog in a fight, and I love to be constantly surprised.

Fighting is my career, it's what I love to do, but I am taking offers and trying to expand because the more I expand myself, the more valuable I become to promoters.

Once you get that addiction of realizing what you can do, you want to take that to the next level.

I like to break down barriers and I think that Hollywood is doing the same thing over and over. I want to do something new and say, "Let's evolve as artists!"

Truth is a bubble and hard to hold on to.

You don't have INSOMNIA. You're a writer with an unfinished book!

I think you get to a certain point in your life and where you grew up stops reminding you of when you grew up. Everything changes, everything metamorphosizes.

In our business, except in media buying, there are few economies of scale. Client perception of creative agencies is that the bigger they are, the worse they are.

True success does not always come in forms that are visible or measurable.

Perhaps because of this, many have looked at my practice in terms of science and technology, however, for me it is just as informed by Surrealism and mythology.

Let us listen to what all the faithful say, because in every one of them the Spirit of God breathes.

You can’t stand in gratitude if you’re stuck in victimhood.

I think of life itself now as a wonderful play that I've written for myself, and so my purpose is to have the utmost fun playing my part.

Long live the rose that grew from the concrete when no one else ever cared!
