I was being trained because I wanted to be a preacher like my father. I wanted to talk about Moses; I wanted to talk about God… I wanted to talk about the apostles, the disciples and all that.
Mr. TLook at the Chandra Levy case. It’s become a Star Chamber. The major networks, the cable networks, they’re being prosecutors. They’re judges and jurors and executioners. Well, c’mon, that’s ridiculous. But they’re doing it.
Ray BradburyEvery citizen has the real right to receive general education and professional training at no cost, something that the United States has not been able to ensure for all its inhabitants.
Fidel CastroNever have we stolen the intelligences of other peoples. On the contrary, in Cuba we have trained tens of thousands of doctors and other top-level professionals, for free, in order to send them back to their own countries.
Fidel CastroPart of my daily regime is my glucosamine and, of course, a multitude of multivitamins. Branched-chain amino acids, glutamine, of course protein. I have one protein shake a day, and that is immediately after my training.
Dwayne JohnsonPeople think hard sparring will get you sharp. And you do get sharp in the gym. But anytime I’ve trained that way, I’ve actually been a little bit flatter in the fight. And the knockout shot hasn’t come. It’s almost because my training has been too hard.
Conor McGregorWhat we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn’t think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerI will fight in many weight divisions.
Conor McGregorEveryone needs a coach. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player.
Bill GatesNot every difficult and dangerous thing is suitable for training, but only that which is conducive to success in achieving the object of our effort.
EpictetusWhy did I become Jackie Chan? Mostly because I work very hard. When people were sleeping, I was still training.
Jackie ChanI think I’ve really stepped outside the box in the way I try to train, eat, hydrate, the cognitive brain games I play on a daily or weekly basis to try to build up some durability within my body, within my brain, to be able to go out there and play at a high level at age 38.
Tom BradyI thought my life was mapped out. Research, living in the forest, teaching and writing. But in ’86 I went to a conference and realised the chimpanzees were disappearing. I had worldwide recognition and a gift of communication. I had to use them.
Jane GoodallI’ve learned new footwork patterns that are very unusual. I’ve learned how to find a lower centre of gravity, and I’ve found more angles to throw shots.
Conor McGregorMy goal is to be number one in MMA.
Conor McGregorI hated every minute of training, but I said, ‚Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.‘
Muhammad AliJohn F. Kennedy was the victim of the hate that was a part of our country. It is a disease that occupies the minds of the few but brings danger to the many.
Lyndon B. JohnsonNot a lot of people or pros in this game know how to train correctly. That’s why they don’t have a long career. Their body gets banged up. They get into a rhythm of heavy sparring and heavy work, but through that, they’re limiting movement.
Conor McGregorThe army teaches boys to think like men.
Elvis PresleyWhen police or prosecutors conceal significant exculpatory or impeaching material, we hold, it is ordinarily incumbent on the state to set the record straight.
Ruth Bader GinsburgAnybody who tells you that a two-day conference, you’re going to turn into the General Patton of leadership, they’re not telling you the truth. But you can learn the fundamentals; you can absolutely understand the fundamentals.
Jocko WillinkEngineering training deals with the exact sciences. That sort of exactness makes for truth and conscience. It might be good for the world if more men had that sort of mental start in life even if they did not pursue the profession.
Herbert HooverAs long as I stay in training and play well, I don’t see what objection there can be to what I do off the field.
George BestTraining and resting takes up most of my time.
Sunil ChhetriIf you have to stand and fight, you train yourself so that you’re able to do it.
Jocko WillinkI have been brought up and trained to have the utmost contempt for people who get drunk.
Winston ChurchillIt’s all to do with the training: you can do a lot if you’re properly trained.
Queen Elizabeth IIThe training of children is a profession, where we must know how to waste time in order to save it.
Jean-Jacques RousseauWherever the enemy wants to fight, we will follow him to the ends of the Earth. We’ll adapt, we’ll train, we’ll advise, we’ll mentor, and we’ll fight, and we’ll fight well.
Jim MattisA good boxing competition gives one the sight of fine men in their prime, trained to the ounce, showing the highest skill, pluck and endurance in carrying out their attack and defence under strict rules of fair play and good temper.
Robert Baden-PowellWhen I am free to train and free to move, I feel like a gorilla in the jungle. Then, when there are a bunch of media obligations, I feel like I have been captured and am being kept on display.
Conor McGregorThe United States never lost a war or won a conference.
Will RogersThe most important part of education is proper training in the nursery.
PlatoWhen I was running training, we would fire a couple of leaders from every SEAL team because they couldn’t lead. And 99.9% of the time, it wasn’t a question of their ability – it was a question of their ability to listen.
Jocko WillinkBread without flesh is a good diet, as on many botanical excursions I have proved. Tea also may easily be ignored. Just bread and water and delightful toil is all I need – not unreasonably much, yet one ought to be trained and tempered to enjoy life in these brave wilds in full independence of any particular kind of nourishment.
John MuirLearning to live for others isn’t something that just comes naturally to anybody. You have to train yourself to do it.
Joyce MeyerA good feeling for me is when you train, and then you put on fresh clothes. New clothes after a training session – you have this rush of endorphins from exercise that everybody gets, and then you get that nice feeling of fresh clothes. It’s a double whammy.
Conor McGregorWhat makes you a SEAL, what makes you a SEAL is being a good tactician on the battle field, understanding how to shoot, move, and communicate, knowing small unit maneuver warfare. That’s what makes a good SEAL, and so that is the course of instruction that I taught, was getting SEAL platoons ready for deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Jocko WillinkIf you give a person a fish, they’ll fish for a day. But if you train a person to fish, they’ll fish for a lifetime.
Dan QuayleI did 20 years in the Navy. I joined the Navy right out of high school and went through Navy boot camp, went to SEAL training, got done with that, and then showed up at a SEAL team, where I did 20 years. That was pretty much my whole adult life.
Jocko WillinkTraining is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.
Mark TwainI think sometimes the best training is to rest.
Cristiano RonaldoThe Center for Disease Control started out as the malaria war control board based in Atlanta. Partly because the head of Coke had some people out to his plantation, and they got infected with malaria, and partly ‚cause all the military recruits were coming down and having a higher fatality rate from malaria while training than in the field.
Bill GatesConfidence comes from discipline and training.
Robert KiyosakiIf you learn a martial art, you learn to be dangerous, but simultaneously, you learn to control it.
Jordan PetersonIn military school, on day one you must memorize the mission of the Merchant Marine Academy.
Robert KiyosakiIgnorance of all things is an evil neither terrible nor excessive, nor yet the greatest of all; but great cleverness and much learning, if they be accompanied by a bad training, are a much greater misfortune.
PlatoI wasn’t born a natural entrepreneur. I had to be trained.
Robert KiyosakiColombia has been the leading western recipient of U.S. arms and training as violence has grown through the ’90s.
Noam ChomskyThe Creator has not thought proper to mark those in the forehead who are of stuff to make good generals. We are first, therefore, to seek them blindfold, and then let them learn the trade at the expense of great losses.
Thomas JeffersonFor a privileged minority, Western democracy provides the leisure, the facilities, and the training to seek the truth lying hidden behind the veil of distortion and misrepresentation, ideology and class interest, through which the events of current history are presented to us.
Noam ChomskyBodybuilding is much like any other sport. To be successful, you must dedicate yourself 100% to your training, diet and mental approach.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerSuccess in training the boy depends largely on the Scoutmaster’s own personal example.
Robert Baden-PowellTalking to a player helps, but in our sport the majority of learning happens from watching another player. You pick up things like being punctual, being nice to everyone, making sure you give your 100 per cent even in training.
Sunil ChhetriI train and I go home, and when I’m home, I think about training. That’s my life every day, and that’s it.
Conor McGregorI really love training and being in good shape, and it’s so much a part of my life now, so it never really feels like work to me.
Tom BradyReading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.
Francis BaconHate crime is not new in the United States.
Kamala HarrisFor me, training is my meditation, my yoga, hiking, biking all rolled into one. Wake up early in the morning, generally around 4 o’clock, and I’ll do my cardio on an empty stomach. Stretch, have a big breakfast, and then I’ll go train.
Dwayne JohnsonI never got into training to be an All-Ireland boxing champ or to win a belt. At the start, I just got into it to learn how to defend myself when I got into situations.
Conor McGregor
