More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
There'll never be a 'Rocky IV.' You gotta call a halt.
Sylvester Stallone
Every time I've failed, people had me out for the count, but I always come back.
Sylvester Stallone
When I saw 'Hercules,' my mind just exploded because I was extremely thin I was insecure. I literally ran out of the theatre and started lifting things, anything I could think of - milk crates. I'm still lifting things. It changed my life.
Sylvester Stallone
And if I look at my icebox, there's no way I'm sitting there looking like Gandhi. I mean, I don't have crickets in there and little green rice. No, I mean it's a pretty liberal icebox. It's all in there.
Sylvester Stallone
I want to turn my attention to movies about love relationships. Exploring the female psyche - there ought to be some interesting discoveries there. Love stories. If you do it right, people want to hear romantic dialog.
Sylvester Stallone
Most of the films I myself like don't do very well. Every director, he has a choice, whether to go for subtlety and try to articulate every minute detail, or to go for the broad strokes and hope that the people will fill in between the lines. I tend to go for the broader strokes.
Sylvester Stallone
I never started out to be an action actor. I was an ensemble actor.
Sylvester Stallone
I do believe that American should deal from strength.
Sylvester Stallone
Now if you know what you're worth. Then go out and get what you're worth.
Sylvester Stallone
I was on cruise control from '85 to '95, and it was my fault. There were a lot of self-inflicted wounds, when I was not doing any original material. I wasn't directing. I wasn't writing. That's not who I am.
Sylvester Stallone
It took me a long time to be convinced that marriage was right for me because I've come from a long line of broken marriages. My parents divorced, and I had two broken marriages myself.
Sylvester Stallone
If I just know in my gut that a film is going to work, I'll fight to the death over it, and I convince myself. When a movie is purely a money job, the film doesn't have the same sort of intensity, and the audience almost senses it, at least that's the way I perceive it. So, yeah, the idea is to do something that you truly, truly believe in.
Sylvester Stallone
'Rocky' represents the optimistic side of life, and 'Rambo' represents purgatory.
Sylvester Stallone
Clothing is the first step to building a character.
Sylvester Stallone
I think I'm a much better painter than an actor.
Sylvester Stallone
I just fight in my movies, never in real life.
Sylvester Stallone
If it's not broken, break it. That's how new discoveries are made. That's why everything that changes life is called a breakthrough.
Sylvester Stallone
Clichés are what good writing is all about. Because our lives are basically clichés.
Sylvester Stallone
When life hits you pretty hard, you can go into a dark corner.
Sylvester Stallone
Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!
