The unique thing about bodybuilding is that when I compete it is just me on a stage alone. There is no field, no bat, no ball, no skis, no skates. All other athletes have to use equipment, like a football. But I don't use anything in competition except myself. It's just me up there. Me alone. No coach. No nothing.

I think most of my lessons come from sports. That's why I always emphasise to young kids to get involved in sports because it's where you learn about discipline. It's where you learn to keep going, where if you think you can't make it, you can.

I have a good sense of my body in a bathing suit around people who appreciate what I'm doing, like a contest. Then I'm proud. On television I am proud. But on a beach most people are not experts. The general public doesn't know how to look. How proud can you be when they don't even know what they're looking at?

If you can go through the pain period, you make it to be a champion. If you can't go through it, forget it. And that's what most people lack: having the guts - the guts to go in and just say... I don't care what happens

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.

The biggest problem that we have is that California is being run now by special interests. All of the politicians are not anymore making the moves for the people, but for special interests and we have to stop that.

Gray Davis can run a dirty campaign better than anyone, but he can't run a state.

The secret of success is to make your mind work for you - not against you. This means constantly being positive, constantly setting up challenges you can meet - either today, next week, or next month etc.

I believe in love it, or change it rather than love it, or leave it.

Injuries happen when your mind is beyond your body, largely when you think you're King Kong and lift weights heavier than the body can handle.

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.

I think the first and most important thing is that you've got to have a goal and a vision.

I feel good because I believe I have made progress in rebuilding the people's trust in their government.

My friend James Cameron and I made three films together - True Lies, The Terminator and Terminator 2. Of course, that was during his early, low-budget, art-house period.

You can never find a candidate that will agree with everything you believe. Then you would just have a clone and that doesn't exist.
