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.

On the sequel, you've lost the element of surprise. Usually, on the first one you may not go very, very deep into character the second one you start to explore the character a bit more.

If you think people are inherently good, you get rid of the police for 24 hours - see what happens.

Boxing is a great exercise ... as long as you can yell cut whenever you want to.

I used to tweet, but it's an act of futility. You're not really making any impact, and if you find yourself in a mood when you wanna be a bit controversial and you post something, you suddenly realise, 'Oh my God!' because you've opened yourself up to a bunch of criticism from strangers.

The character of Rocky was built on the idea that he was chosen to do something. That's why the first image in Rocky is the picture of Christ.

To be really artful, though, you have to be subjective and so singular.

I wish I had thought of Velcro muscles myself. I didn't have to go to the gym for all those years, all the hours wedded to the iron game, as we call it.

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.

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.

Eventually writing became more interesting to me than acting.

Lighting can bring out certain contours in the body, in the face, in the eyes, that otherwise flat lighting couldn't.

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.

The only happy artist is a dead artist, because only then you can't change. After I die, I'll probably come back as a paintbrush.

Once I stopped trying to always do everything my way, and once I asked for God's help, things have truly gone a different direction.
