More quotes by Richard Simmons
My persona has always been what a man was never supposed to be. Outrageous, gregarious, crazy, silly, funny.
Richard Simmons
I plan for the future, but the only day I really worry about is the day I'm living right now.
Richard Simmons
I don't have a lot to offer one person. I have a lot to offer to a lot of people.

When I talk to kids who are overweight, I see my face on their bodies.
Richard Simmons
Well mine is not gimmicky - it is the 6 food groups that God made, and exercising every day. Trying to think positively.
Richard Simmons
What if you can't do what you once did, like run and jump up and down? You can walk, which is also good for your mind and mental attitude. You can do simpler exercises, like getting up and down from a chair without using your hands. You can stay fairly flexible. The most important thing is to not become sedentary.
Richard Simmons
I start phone calls at 4 A.M. to cheer people up. The housebound, people in the hospital. People who, after decades, still can't get over what happened 10 or 15 years ago.
Richard Simmons
When I was younger, I ate nothing but fried food. Everything was fried, from oysters to chicken to potatoes to vegetables. When you die in New Orleans, they deep fry you before they put you in the coffin. When we baptize children in New Orleans, we baptize them with a bordelaise sauce we don't use water.
Richard Simmons
People are still grasping for the miracle, and unfortunately, there are no miracles, if you do not exercise for a year, and let your body remain dormant, then you will gain weight.
Richard Simmons

Richard Simmons
Every day after school, for three hours a day, I would sell those pralines on the street corner. I was just eight years old. I'd bring the money home to my parents and say, This is just the beginning.
Richard Simmons
It's terrible, the way obese children and adults are treated in this country [USA]. And I'm not leaving this Earth until that is changed.
Richard Simmons
Puberty for me was graduating from Thousand Island salad dressing to Caesar salads. It was like going from hot dogs and hamburgers to beef stroganoff, or from ice cream in a cone to creme brulee.
Richard Simmons
I really created my career out of my own compulsion. Because I knew if I owned an exercise studio and I had to teach my classes there, I wasn't going to gain my weight back.
Richard Simmons
For my workout, I'm up at 4am. I say my prayers, count my blessings, and I work out right away. I just get it done. One day I'll tone - chest, back and shoulders - and the next day it's biceps and triceps. I also do 45 minutes of cardio every day. I do that before I even leave the house.
Richard Simmons
When we're binging, we do not think about death. We just think about how good it tastes.
Richard Simmons
I'm a very insecure and emotional person still looking to be loved by everyone else.
Richard Simmons
I have two rules for living in the world. I never say anything negative about anyone, because that won't get you anywhere. And two, if people confront me with certain questions, if they are not right, I will not answer them.
Richard Simmons
I get tired of negativity in our country. I get tired of people who only want to know dirt. I get tired of people who don't believe in themselves.
Richard Simmons
The real pride, the real present, is your health and your longevity. My whole career, I have never done anything where competition was involved with weight loss.
