I'm not sure if this is quite what you're looking for (presuming you're still looking, given the original post date), as they're a bit more specific, but I'll post up a few I typed up for various reviews and my history post.

My favourite quote from Saulo:

Saulo Ribeiro said:
A lot of people give up about trying to open the guard on the ground because they have got so many problems and spend so much energy here on the ground. You have to think that your partner, the guy that you're training [with], has to be your best friend.

So, you don't want to hurt him, you don't want to try to open his guard with your elbow, make him feel really pain, because jiu jitsu is not about pain. You have to find the right spot to save your energy and be able to open the guard.

One I liked from Cesar Gracie:

Cesar Gracie said:
It doesn't matter how many good moves you know to apply if you can't control your opponent. Your goal is total body control: when I'm across the side, I want to keep my opponent from getting out of there. That gives me time to find an attack. If I can't do that, I'm never going to get an attack, because they're going to be moving.

Draculino in response to the possibility of his name being used to promote a seminar that may have frauds in it.

"Listen to me........My name is not a bone to be carried in a dogs mouth"

...classic.
