More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
I've always said that the artist dies twice. And the first death is the hardest which is the career death, the creative death. The physical death is an inevitability.
Sylvester Stallone
We do two things in life: We race the clock and everything is a struggle. One way or not, it's a metaphorical battle all of the time.
Sylvester Stallone
When you're younger you just want to go out and make your mark in the world and doing that, quite often, the people that you love the most and the people you should be closest to suffer from estrangement. I'd be gone nine months a year, so how do you know anyone? When you come home you are a stranger.
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
You've got to show your soul otherwise you're just a piece of equipment.
Sylvester Stallone
Every time I've failed, people had me out for the count, but I always come back.
Sylvester Stallone
I just fight in my movies, never in real life.
Sylvester Stallone
I try to tell people that just because you're buff and cut doesn't mean you're healthy.
Sylvester Stallone
Remember the mind is your best muscle...BIG ARMS can move rocks, but BIG WORDS can move mountains... Ride the brain train for success.
Sylvester Stallone
I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.
Sylvester Stallone
If you think people are inherently good, you get rid of the police for 24 hours - see what happens.
Sylvester Stallone
Don't discuss your dreams. Pursue them!
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
When you're on top and you lead the parade, everyone's there throwing lilies and lilac water on your head. But when those parades have gone by and there's a storm in your heart, there are very few people that are going to sit there and listen to you bemoan life.
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
You know you've been around when they start to remake your own movies when you're still alive.
Sylvester Stallone
Everyone has this conjecture that action films are somewhat less prestigious than dramatic films. Nothing could be further from the truth. I've done them both and this is hard and dangerous.
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
I would never run for president.
Sylvester Stallone
Clothing is the first step to building a character.
