As a kid I always idolized the winning athletes. It is one thing to idolize heroes. It is quite another to visualize yourself in their place. When I saw great people, I said to myself: I can be there.

More quotes by Arnold Schwarzenegger
Bodybuilders' cocks are the same size as everyone else's.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I think that the important thing to know is, which is great about this country [the USA], when it comes to domestic issues, we all battle it out and fight it between the parties and all those kind of things to get things done, but when it comes to foreign issues, overseas kind of things, then we all speak with one voice.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
What 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 Schwarzenegger
Don't be economic Girlie-Men
Arnold Schwarzenegger
It doesn't matter what party you come from. The key thing is that you work on behalf of the people rather than on behalf of the party.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I was born to be a leader. I love the fact that millions of people look up to me.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
If I train the hardest, run the longest, go beyond what anyone else has the mental determination to do, I will be the winner.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I make my protein drink with whiskey. People think I'm crazy, but that's the way I am. I get stoned, I do my own thing.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Nobody gets muscles by watching ME lift weights.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
The percentage of gays is the same, probably, as anywhere. Most bodybuilders are straight, regular street guys, though a lot aren't serious. Many in California are punks, beach bums just lying around in the sun and maybe collecting unemployment.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
One thing Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't is self-effacing. Everything has to be the biggest. His money, his muscles, his movies and his machines.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
The secret is contained in a three-part formula I learned in the gym: self confidence, a positive mental attitude, and honest hard work.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
The good bodybuilders have the same mind ... that a sculptor has. If you analyze it, you look in the mirror and you say, okay, I need a bit more deltoids ... so that the proportion's right, and ... you exercise and put those deltoids on, whereas an artist would just slap on some clay on each side.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it. People need somebody to watch over them. Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I will not change. Because if you are successful and you change, you are an idiot.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
Everything that I've accomplished in life was because of America and because of California, so I should take seven years out of my life to be a public servant and to serve the people of California regardless of the lack of pay.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I never set limits or created mental barriers. You may have read that I imagined my biceps as big as mountain peaks when I did my curling exercises. This visualization process was essential if I was to gain the kind of mass and size I needed to win the mr Olympia contest against monsters like Sergio Olivia and Lou ferrigno.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
For the hundreds of thousands of Californians in gay and lesbian households who are managing their day-to-day lives, this decision affirms the full legal protections and safeguards I believe everyone deserves.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
I think that gay marriage should be between a man and a woman.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
It is unconstitutional to deny people, gay or lesbian couples, the right to marriage. Everyone has equal rights so this is the right way to go. I think it's a great celebration for America.
