Famous Ronda Rousey Quotes

It was really an eye opener to how you really have to be careful about being followed everywhere. I was trying to go to the most remote place in the world, I was out on a sandbar in the middle of the ocean, and they still found me. It was definitely a very new experience.”

“There have been times in my adolescence where I gave up. I was like, 'I'm just never going to be pretty. I'm never going to be like one of those people on the front of magazines.'

I never understood that mismatch, and now I really start to see that the people you see in the media are a lot more like people actually are.”
