Yochai Benkler

When people get into that fight-or-flight place, then they move away from the creative centers of their brain.

Derrick Lewis

When I first got to WWE, people thought I was going to be fired within three months. No one liked me; no one wanted me there, whether it was the fans or the people backstage. I had to fight and fight and fight to earn my spot.
