Quote

Voices are like fingerprints, from Cagney to Bogart. They never lost it. My voice is instrumental in categorizing me.

Image
I take rejection as someone blowing a bugle in my ear to wake me up and get going, rather than retreat.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
At the very end, the one person who Rambo should kill, he doesn't kill. He lets it live. Because you can't kill that kind of hypocritical bureaucracy. It goes on forever.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
The only thing that I haven't done is perform brain surgery on myself. I've been very, very lucky. I've spared Shakespeare undue stress by not doing that.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I've always boxed a certain way. But with Rocky, the character himself had to be kind of awkward. So I had to learn to fight that way.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
Suddenly I've got an overwhelming desire to surround myself with the aura of classical and Romantic art.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I do believe that American should deal from strength.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
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
Image
I think that's become passe, but if you can surround yourself with a kind of monument to yourself and your family - a statement - and you can afford it, then that's a noble project.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
What I'm trying to do now in my life - not just with the building, but with everything - is to construct things that will have enduring qualities, and won't just be ephemeral flashes in the pan.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
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
Image
You cannot train yourself. I feel the same way about Christianity and about what the church is: The church is the gym of the soul.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I loved 'Rocky' and 'Rambo', and am very proud of them.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
When I was a kid, my mother used to feed me mashed-potato sandwiches, brussel sprout sandwiches my brain cells were starving from lack of food. I'll eat anything. I'll eat dirt.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I really have very little aspirations about acting because I think that probably the best things have come and gone. I would like to focus on writing and directing. I love writing and directing even though writing can be incredibly painful and lonely. I get great satisfaction from doing it.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
There is an age-old proverb that really does hold true in every area of life - in relations between nations and right down to the most subtle and sophisticated or must unstable and unsophisticated relations between lovers - and it is this: they took kindness for weakness.

Rocky would definitely run for councilman. Maybe mayor. But these people are actually most effective in the family unit. That's where they shine.

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.

I'd live in a museum if I could. I used to spend hours and hours in the Museum of Modern Art.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I never started out to be an action actor. I was an ensemble actor.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
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.
