Until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you're gonna have. It's pathetic. It really is pathetic. It's sad. We're living in the Dark Ages over there.
Sylvester Stallone
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.

I keep trying to tell people. I said, at 40, 45, you're at that crossroads. You really are there. And it's not like you can have gain without pain, but this is it. The days are - like when I wrote this whole thing about, in the beginning of my first magazine. I said, If you live to be 75 years old, that's 3,900 weekends. That's it.

Sylvester Stallone
If you express yourself too much, you're considered weak.
Sylvester Stallone
Polo is like tennis - you literally have to live it.
Sylvester Stallone
Lighting can bring out certain contours in the body, in the face, in the eyes, that otherwise flat lighting couldn't.
Sylvester Stallone
I thought I had reached a point in life where everything would be smooth. But it is not. It just gets more jagged and pitted and filled with turns that take you into the dark recesses of your mind. It never seems to get easy.
Sylvester Stallone
I tend to think of action movies as exuberant morality plays in which good triumphs over evil.
Sylvester Stallone
I think everyone has questions in their mind. Did they do their very best?
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
I think I'm a much better painter than an actor.
Sylvester Stallone
Early on everyone should do, every time they do a big film, they should do a little film. It really does keep you grounded.
Sylvester Stallone
When people meet me they’re often surprised. I talk a great deal.
Sylvester Stallone
There are endless exercises for arms, but the basics are best-chinups and pushups.
Sylvester Stallone
Good action films - not crap, but good action films - are really morality plays. They deal in modern, mythic culture.
