“Diamonds are forever, and so is Ric Flair!”
“I didn’t have any plans to become a wrestler until about a year before I started.”
“I don’t think there was one. I can’t name one. Not because I had a lot of great feuds, but it would be hard to say the defining feud.”

“If you don’t like it, learn to love it!”
“If you’re a man, you don’t cry about it, you take life, the ups and downs; if you’re a real man you never go down, you just stay up!”
“I’m every woman’s dream and every man’s nightmare.”
“I’m gonna walk down the aisle in style and profile.”
“I’m Ric Flair! The Stylin’, profilin’, limousine riding, jet flying, kiss-stealing, wheelin’ n’ dealin’ son of a gun!”
“In my life, I’ve been a movie star, a rock star, and a sports star, all wrapped up into one-and worked harder at it than anybody else.”
“It’s so hard for me to sit back here in this studio, looking at a guy out here, hollering my name!”
“It’s the greatest show on earth. It’s unbelievable.”
“I’ve had more world championships than you’ve had women!”
“My God, thank you. Thank you very much. I’m almost embarrassed by the response, but when I see this, I know that the twenty five years that I’ve spent trying to make you happy every night of your life was worth every damn minute of it.”
“My problem is that I think everybody needs to work as hard as I worked when I was in my prime.”
“My shoes are worth more……than your house!”
“None of this was written to hurt anybody’s feelings.”

“We used to wrestle every night, 385 times a year. For ten years. 365 days. Never had any holidays off, ever. Holidays were always two-day venues. Two event venues. Afternoon and night.”
“When somebody has convinced you that you’re not worth anything to anybody anymore, and they spend a lot of time doing it, you start believing it yourself.”
“Whenever I hear the crowds going WOOOOO!! It makes me feel very good, it means I’ve worked very hard and earned a lot of respect, each night I go out there I go out there for the fans to make them smile, or make them cry.”
“Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going. Wooooo!”
