Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!
Sylvester Stallone
I think kids growing up, if they were picked on and feeling inferior at 12, they're going to feel that way at 72. You just deal with it better. I'm serious.

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
The character of Rocky was built on the idea that he was chosen to do something. That's why the first image in Rocky is the picture of Christ.
Sylvester Stallone
Usually whenever you're scared of something, do it. If you're not afraid of it, don't do it.
Sylvester Stallone
There are endless exercises for arms, but the basics are best-chinups and pushups.
Sylvester Stallone
With writing, I think you have to be honest with yourself. I have a certain kind of writing that is, I like to really embellish the human spirit. You have to write about something you have a feel for.
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
