More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
'Rocky' represents the optimistic side of life, and 'Rambo' represents purgatory.
Sylvester Stallone
I was very much into buying contemporary art, but I've just decided I want to get rid of it all. Not that it's not great art, but all of a sudden my mood has changed, and I want to go back to seventeenth- and eighteenth-century masters.
Sylvester Stallone
I respect a woman too much to marry her.
Sylvester Stallone
Clichés are what good writing is all about. Because our lives are basically clichés.
Sylvester Stallone
Some people maybe try to justify their laziness. You take out what you put in and the more I go to church and the more I turn myself over to the process of believing in Jesus, and to listening to his word and have him guide my hand I feel the pressure's off me.
Sylvester Stallone
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.
Sylvester Stallone
I just fight in my movies, never in real life.
Sylvester Stallone
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
Through failure, I found different ways to reverse my problems and get into the mainstream of Hollywood.
Sylvester Stallone
Movies are the work of a collective conscious. It takes 500-800 people on a movie to complete a vision.
Sylvester Stallone
I never started out to be an action actor. I was an ensemble actor.
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
Every generation has to find their own heroes.
Sylvester Stallone
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.
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
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
I'd live in a museum if I could. I used to spend hours and hours in the Museum of Modern Art.
Sylvester Stallone
Testosterone to me is so important for a sense of well-being when you get older.
Sylvester Stallone
When I'm on a location, I pick a restaurant that's close and private and eat all my meals there.
Sylvester Stallone
Now if you know what you're worth. Then go out and get what you're worth.
Sylvester Stallone
