Rickson Gracie: I believe that you should have an evolutionary point of view. You must meditate, you must pray, you must be thankful, you must give. I think those things are very important spiritually for you to be at peace with yourself. Once you've tried to improve spiritually, physically and mentally you are in a good way. Even if I lost my two legs now I don't think that it would make me lose the sense of life. Of course I'm not gonna be a fighter anymore, but I'm ale to allow myself to do other things. I'm gonna try to swim. I'm gonna try to surf. I don't know what else, but I'm definitely going to still be in love with life and learning. The mind is so beautiful and so wild and you can have so many different things. There's always a good side to everything. Nothing is totally desperate. Like "Oh…I lost my job." You lost your job? Go to the beach, man. Get some waves.
Maynard James Keenan: If you have a clear mind like that, and if you have confidence in life and in yourself you're going to get fed.
Rickson Gracie: Definitely. You can't be negative all the time.
Maynard James Keenan: You can, but don't expect for things to come to you very easily.
Maynard needs to write a book about life
