Frank Mir quotes:

Religion is the retarded stepchild of philosophy.

There are situations where you can either rise to the occasion or you can feel sorry for yourself. Really that's within your own abilities to make that decision.

It's a never-ending process to try to make yourself the best person you possibly can.

Be patient, be diligent. Consistency is the key.

If I improve just a little bit every day, I'm a happier person

Perfection's awesome... So I strive for it every day.

I want him to be the first person that dies due to Octagon-related injuries. That's what's going through my mind.

When I'm doing my best is when I'm completely focused... You completely wipe off any thoughts of the future, there's nothing going on in the past, you're just completely locked in on the moment, and there's no thinking, you're zoned in on this moment in time.

Look at your life, everyone will always tell you you can't do sh@t, I'm proof you can do things

I would like to apologize to Brock Lesnar, his family, the UFC and the UFC fans for my stupid remarks. I respect Brock, all the other fighters, and the sport of mixed martial arts. I'm sorry that I stepped out of line.
