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.

More quotes by 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'm usually taken for a non-intellectual, a person of limited intelligence. I don't know why, but I figure it's because physically I don't look intelligent.
Sylvester Stallone
I think audiences have hit the wall with CGI and special effects. They have seen so many over-the-top events that they can't suspend disbelief.
Sylvester Stallone
Painting is as close as a person can get to actually capturing the heat of the moment.
Sylvester Stallone
People asked if I could have played the Terminator. Are you kidding? Not a chance, I never could have played the Terminator.
Sylvester Stallone
Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.
Sylvester Stallone
I try to tell people that just because you're buff and cut doesn't mean you're healthy.
Sylvester Stallone
Clichés are what good writing is all about. Because our lives are basically clichés.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.
Sylvester Stallone
Some actors are brilliant character guys. They submerge.
Sylvester Stallone
And if I look at my icebox, there's no way I'm sitting there looking like Gandhi. I mean, I don't have crickets in there and little green rice. No, I mean it's a pretty liberal icebox. It's all in there.
Sylvester Stallone
I am a sensitive writer, actor and director. Talking business disgusts me. If you want to talk business, call my disgusting personal manager.
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 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
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
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
'Rocky' represents the optimistic side of life, and 'Rambo' represents purgatory.
Sylvester Stallone
I know I can't play funny roles in movies. I tried, and it didn't work.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm not just painting for painting's sake. I want to be truthful.
Sylvester Stallone
Movies are the work of a collective conscious. It takes 500-800 people on a movie to complete a vision.
