More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
It's funny because when Jason [Statham] was drowning I was filming with an iPhone. It may have been a bit insensitive but I just thought, you know what, this was a magic moment. And I couldn't help him anyway because I didn't want to drown.
Sylvester Stallone
With writing, I think you have to be honest with yourself. I have a certain kind of writing that is, I like to really embellish the human spirit. You have to write about something you have a feel for.
Sylvester Stallone
Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.
Sylvester Stallone
Sometimes worst enemies like a Mohammed Ali and Joe Frazier that's what makes you fight so hard. Without them they never would have achieved greatness.
Sylvester Stallone
Lighting can bring out certain contours in the body, in the face, in the eyes, that otherwise flat lighting couldn't.

When I'm on a location, I pick a restaurant that's close and private and eat all my meals there.
Sylvester Stallone
Don't discuss your dreams. Pursue them!
Sylvester Stallone
I have tons of regrets, but I think that's one of the reasons that push people to create things. Out of their angst, their regret, comes the best from artists, painters and writers.
Sylvester Stallone
I tell people diets don't work. And I don't care what they say. I have tried them all.
Sylvester Stallone
Good action films - not crap, but good action films - are really morality plays. They deal in modern, mythic culture.
Sylvester Stallone
I think there's a kind of built-in arrogance to anyone who considers themself an artist. They want to feel as though like they can run the whole spectrum. I can do it all. I can do minimalism, and I can do classical art. Well, that's not true.
Sylvester Stallone
Characters I've played, they used to impact my paintings, like 80 percent of the time, and especially when I was doing an action film.
Sylvester Stallone
I have a lack of fear, whereas in the past the fear of failure was a powerful motivator. Anyway, I have great expectations for the future, but I just don't know if I'm the monarch of all I survey.
Sylvester Stallone
I've kind of fashioned my life after a Slinky. Bend me in a million shapes, and eventually I'll spring back to what I originally was.
Sylvester Stallone
If you don't have a mountain, build one and then climb it. And after you climb it, build another one otherwise you start to flatline in your life.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm a patriot of the heart.
Sylvester Stallone
Nothing's harder than writing. There's no comparison. With directing, you can bounce a lot of ideas around. There's tremendous support - you've got editors and sound mixers. With writing, it's all you, and it's just crippling when people tear up your pages.
Sylvester Stallone
I think people of all occupations, whether it's the camera - puller or the man who's doing the catering, they can identify with Rambo's frustrations, with the veteran's frustrations.
Sylvester Stallone
I respect a woman too much to marry her.
Sylvester Stallone
Now it really is, believe it or not, 90% of the films are green lit, not by the studio heads, but by the marketing department.
