“Dinosaurs were huge and powerful; they could not adapt and they died out. And so the big difference between dinosaurs and cockroaches is adaptability: one is able to adjust, while the other, apparently, couldn't... The same analogy applies to fighting, and probably any other sport. It's not always the strong that survive. It takes brains, guts, tolerance and forward thinking. We've seen this since the beginning of mixed martial arts.” ThinkingArtBigsAbleFightingStrongSportsDifferencesPowerfulBrainHugeDiedToleranceGutsMartial ArtsMmaDinosaursAnalogiesAdaptabilityCockroachesForward ThinkingMixed Martial Arts Author:Georges St-Pierre

“There are complaints that it's hard to remember what you can say and what you can't, which words are 'in' for certain groups and which words are not. And yet we started out learning that the 'kitty' on the sidewalk was actually a squirrel, we learned to differentiate between fire trucks and school buses, and many people today know the difference between linguini, fettucini, and rotini.
