I'm like a stuffed toy. You've never met me, but if you did, you'd just want to take me home and put me in your child's room.

My persona has always been what a man was never supposed to be. Outrageous, gregarious, crazy, silly, funny.
Richard Simmons
Image
Sleep is critical to me ... at least eight or nine hours a night. I start to slow down my body and my mind at least 30 minutes before I get into bed. I don't watch any disturbing or invigorating TV at night.
Richard Simmons
Image
Everyone's under pressure and you just have to learn how to deal with it. And I deal with it through prayer and staying busy.
Richard Simmons

I don't talk about my personal life, and I don't talk about death.
Richard Simmons

When we're binging, we do not think about death. We just think about how good it tastes.

I've been going to shopping malls since I was on General Hospital.

I've never swayed from who I am. People have seen me on television, and they know what I'm like and they know what I do and they respect me for what I do. They know that I'm huggy and kissy.

If your oxygen mask drops down, it's time to take a breather!

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.

Some people like to look at pictures of themselves before they lost weight. I don't particularly care for that. Whenever I was overweight, it was a very sad time in my life.
Richard Simmons
Image
We overweight people, we say terrible things to ourselves. Oh, you wouldn't believe it. 'You fat pig. How can you do this? You're a disgusting jerk.' And that gets you nowhere. That gets you right back into a bowl of pasta fregula.

People need the court jester, so I keep that smile on and keep going out there to do what I do.
Richard Simmons
Image
Count your blessings. You are one of a kind. There's no one in the world like you. You are amazing.

Well mine is not gimmicky - it is the 6 food groups that God made, and exercising every day. Trying to think positively.

I've never lived in the visual world. I live very much in an emotional-contact world.
Richard Simmons
Image
When I go to bed, I ask God to give me one more day tomorrow. When I get it, I'm excited and grateful.

Comedy, not screaming at someone, can make someone lift their legs higher. There is a way to do a push-up and a sit-up, and it doesn't have to be so complicated. Everyone is putting a difficult twist to it and making you do way too much.

That's what the majority of people in the world do, they walk among the ruins of their life. Things that didn't work out, relationships that went sour, jobs that disappeared. All they can think about is their ruins, and when you focus on that you can't build a new you.
