More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
I believe there's an inner power that makes winners or losers. And the winners are the ones who really listen to the truth of their hearts.
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.
Sylvester Stallone
Playing polo is like trying to play golf during an earthquake.
Sylvester Stallone
Everybody has anger or regret in them one way or another. They all try different things to get it out. Some people go to psychiatrists. Some paint pictures. Some people talk it out.
Sylvester Stallone
Children are the first thing I see in the morning and the last thing I see at night. It hurts me to be away from them for a few hours. It really does. I love them and they're girls, so they know how to push my buttons. But I've learned a lot and I have to thank my wife for that.
Sylvester Stallone
When life hits you pretty hard, you can go into a dark corner.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm always looking for a new challenge. There are a lot of mountains to climb out there. When I run out of mountains, I'll build a new one.
Sylvester Stallone
Movies are a collective art. Art by proxy.
Sylvester Stallone
That's what Rocky is all about: pride, reputation, and not being another bum in the neighborhood.
Sylvester Stallone
Making a movie is the same as an orchestra it's moving all the different instruments and the sounds, the kinetic and the auditory and the visual all together. I'm probably the trombone.
Sylvester Stallone
To me, the most perfect screenplay ever written will be one word, when you finally reduce it down to that. Until then, writing will be an imperfect form of communication.
Sylvester Stallone
I guess the best thing I do of all is ride. Horsemanship, I have a natural flair for it.
Sylvester Stallone
When people meet me they’re often surprised. I talk a great deal.
Sylvester Stallone
I wish my daughters would box. I'm so worried about the guys coming up to them. I would love them to be able to smack a guy right off a bar stool.
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
Through failure, I found different ways to reverse my problems and get into the mainstream of Hollywood.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm not right wing, I'm not left wing. I love my country.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.
Sylvester Stallone
I have tremendous respect for fighters and I always tell people that boxing in movies is one thing but when you get into the ring for real, even the worst heavyweight in the world is going to murder you. You've just got to appreciate the pain and the suffering and the glory and skill that goes into what they do. That's why I love the sport so much.
Sylvester Stallone
I take rejection as someone blowing a bugle in my ear to wake me up and get going, rather than retreat.
